War town territories
Or at our borders,
The coward's story
It doesn't change.
A bullet for a rock,
An even trade.
In the eyes
Of the tyrant.
Their guns spew hatred
In a relentless rain,
While unfazed children
Meet them with disdain.
It's easy to authorize
Lethal force
When you can alter
That definition.
It's easier to
Execute the child
When you don't view them
As human.
A bullet for a rock,
An even trade
In the eyes of the tyrant.
A stone's throw.
Easy to Justify
Fucking killing
Indiscriminately.
A stone's throw:
Just cause to shoot them back.
