Rage, fear and wrath
wound the earth,
burn up her flowers.
Curse, lies and slurs
hit the blue,
scare off the fliers.
Moan, cry and spasm
smash the sky,
tear out the prayers.
Spite, hate and greed,
vile winds
lash life
with iron.
Tears, not the dew wake the day,
feed sorrowed gardens.
Bells' weeping songs
rip the air,
shake rocks and mountains.
Stop useless fights,
the graves are full.
There are no winners.
Let husbands, sons
come back home,
build hate-free
houses.
Who named the birds of heaven?
Who gave the beasts their names?
Who tended the Garden of Eden?
Was this the man who dooms the World to death?
wound the earth,
