Love lies in the stomach
As many more have said
And with ease we see men
Bleeding from their abdomen.
The world takes our children
From homes to slaughterhouses.
Gutted of their thirst for knowledge
Infused with lack of courage.
Pigs in expensive clothing
Watch satisfied from the side
As men and women turn into animals
Killing for a meals pride.
Hope crucified in public squares
While the lions of our human law
Bite and claw the dreams of change
As humanity is severed from the flesh.
Now what purpose does this life provide
In the barren wastelands of our times?
With all noble things left aside,
Who can we turn to? Where can we hide?
