Do not give me The blood of another personTelling meIts for my future survivalHow can I just sit hereBelieving that it doesn’t matter When babies, mothers, people Are just killedBelieving it ensures my survival Don’t go killing on my account After you turned A blind eyeA deaf earTo all the sights and soundsOf bigotry and hatredInequality and injustice The seeds that germinate Into the reasons given To kill whoever To wait until crises erupt You being forced to fight One time friendsRings of hypocrisy When the horrors usedJustifying today’s war Are the atrocities of your friendsThat were accommodated yesterdayWith many a pretenses Denying they ever occurredAs if those lives had no worthOr the pains of those Suffering lost of loved onesIs of less significance Sprouting out moral indignation today With self-righteous attitudes Are but echoesBouncing off the mis-education While upholding concepts Of inequality on various pretextsStereotyping and dividingJustifying the abuse of powerBecause the victims of the mis-education Still the ones to pay the priceFor the action taken As you come to their rescue
