Mercy by William Wright, Jr.

By Raja's Insight on June 10, 2019 • ( 0 )

The child dies unanswered

In the whirl-wind of man

Hysterical and blind

Even still they labor

To their tune of death

As war clouds prowl

Unfazed and starved

We are helplessly interned

Reverent and mute

At the storm of their treads

Bound, for peril’s embrace

We are told

To bury our rage

As slaughter unfolds

In our time

In the days of our young
