Devestation
The famous twins collapsing
As the burning flames ascend
from the fiery depths of hell
The children crying
Their hands held high
As the wars continue to
Slowly rip apart the world
As we descend into emptiness
The hateful dagger penetrating
The skin; past the over budgeted clothes
Of the billionaire who never loved anyone
The tears of the sun
That burn the sky
Turning it black as ash
The distortion of love
The yell of a warrior
As he dies for his
Country
Its the want to kill
The need to watch
Innocence explode into pieces
Its the woman who
Didn't deserve to get raped
The child who got
Murdered for no reason
The smell of skin
Burning all because
One man felt the need
To rid the world of
The minorities
He thought of as
"Things"
Lower than himself
Its Hiroshima and Nagasaki
Disintegrating from the bombs
We sent
Its the whip slashing
The back of an
Innocent black man
Just because of the color of his skin
Its the cell that Rosa Parks
Spent countless hours in
While the white men laughed
Because they still got their way
The dust that would
Cling to your food
To your clothes
To your throat
Making it a slow
Painful death
Its the pain
The pain of losing
A newborn child
The sadness in
Your heart
