Once the howling starts
The engines’ roar wakes victims up
All staring at the black sky
Unaware of horrors they won’t survive
First fires casting eerie light
will reveal the beasts’ shape
-wild, bloodthirsty birds of prey
Their bellies filled with bombs,
released to reduce the city to ash
and break the spirit of inhabitants
There are no prayers -
-to be answered
no voice - to show a safe path
You, you cannot hide
from waves of sound
from stench of gore
You, you will know grief
for your past greed
for lost families
Witness the glory that takes your hearing,
tears your flesh, separates the living.
Your final moments are only you
and your transfer to the other side
Born of a vile mind
Tormenting living tissues
will to dominate or eradicate
You can hear them quilting down,
descending in order to kill,
to deal a devastating, final blow
You, you cannot hide
From waves of sound
From stench of gore
You, you will know grief
For your past greed
For lost families
Now prepare to die.
I watch you rats, meandering around the debris
traversing the rifts
Trying not to get crushed
Concrete is creating graves overhead,
coffins full of dust
Holes where you will rest
- Forever
The second light rises
Low upon horizon
It's time to leave the ruins we created
Before people abandon their shelters
When that happens-
We’ll be long gone
Waiting for another order to fight
You, you cannot hide
From waves of sound
From stench of gore
You, you will know grief
For your past greed
For lost families
