Look into the eyes of war,

there you shall see destruction

an amorous fire of doom,

conniving with kerosine and the gasoline

and the petrol,

yes, the mouth of war

spits explosions

feel the heat

as you see buildings moaning

in the powerful fire

 

Hear the mockery of

the gunshots, scorning

the lives of innocent people

as blood becomes

the apparent blueprint

 

corpses are the horrible graffitti

of either a rebellion

or a riot

this is the heartbeat of war.
