Military Industrial Complex

Military Industrial Complex

 

Every weapon

Is a dream forsaken

A piece of bread

Taken

From the mouth of the poor

Such is the horror

Of war

The factories work day and night

Weapons, uniforms, food, for those who fight

They are generously paid

For the goods that are made

See wicked men gray and old

Coveting coffers full of gold

Hear the tale they tell

Making Eden hell

All is not well

Nor shall things be

Until we are free

Of organized hate

We have no time to wait

The ship is sinking in the stormy sea

We must be free

In the depths of my heart there is a hole

I feel it vex

My soul

The Military Industrial Complex

Satan’s soldiers with suit and tie

Manipulating the nation with lie after lie

Hear the perishing baby

Give its final cry

Why?

For profits

For profit they die


 POLISHED FRAGMENTS

Poet To The Poor
