Tell us
Did you start a war
So our women
Could be sold to public shame?
Our girls everyday
Stripped bare of humanity
And treated to voyeuristic sadistic
Machinations of deranged soldiers?
Tell us
Did you start this war
As a trade fair of evil
Displaying the different faces
Of Lucifer to a terrified populace?
Our children naked holding guns
To their chests.
Tell us now
Did you design this war
As a catalogue of atrocities
To enshrine in the libraries of our history?
Did you engineer this war
To blaze us in the flames of your feuds
Or was it so you could issue official statements?
