Brought Them Back to Calm

“Born in the cage

Set free in flames

Chain the slaves in clay

Working through the pain

Sleepless night and days

Everyone (sky) the same

The soldiers of the clay

Let them die in vain.

Slaughter during rage

Cherish in the stains.

The weight of one brick

In a thousand palms

The power of the stick

Break their spines unarmed

A cure for the sick

Needles in their arms

Nothing left to see

Brought them back to calm.

Counting all the prey

The falcon on it’s throne

Leaping down upon

The shadows of those men.

Counting all the kills

Sculpt them all in stone

Shatter with one strike

Hide them in the mound.“
