Children aren’t eating
They have no heating
Where are they sleeping
Their souls absorb beating
It’s solace they’re seeking
Our leaders retreating
Their morals are leaking
Just keep on misleading
Their cruelty is seeping
Mothers fall weeping
It’s deafening their shrieking
Their heartstrings are creaking
Fence-sitters conceding
Ignoring the pleading
In dark they’re creeping
Compassion’s receding
Withhold critiquing
The innocent are bleeding
Peace is all they’re seeking
