Blown Away
© 2006 Neil Porter
I’m so sad
Another sleepless night
Heartless missiles flying
Desperate people crying
Over there
It’s so bad
I don’t know how you sleep
All of this attention
No signs of intervention
Over there
Leaders give the orders
Someone pulls the trigger
Someone straps the bombs on
Someone aims the missile
They all make decisions
All except the targets
They get blown away
It can’t be
These pictures can’t be real
Demolishing a nation
Killing moderation
Over there
I can’t see
How this can ever heal
Politicians lying
Frightened people dying
Over there
Armies do the fighting
No-one wants to be there
No-one wants to die there
No-one seems to listen
No-one hears the children
No-one has the answers
They all get blown away
