Blow back for an Empire
drones swoop over Pakistan
incessant buzzing death
faceless killers buzzing death
American killer buzzing death
incessant buzzing death
drones swoop over yemen
incessant buzzing death
faceless killer buzzing death
American killer buzzing death
incessant buzzing death
blowback, blow back fire.
when the rain of death finds
its way back to home.
home the heart of the empire.
Drones blind buzzing death.
killing men, women, boys and girls.
killing warriors, and children
killing men, women, children.
Why do they hate us?
Why do they hate us?
Can’t they see we are
Just like them:
Men, women, children?
Vultures black out the sky
fear buzzing death…. coming
nearer
nearer
to
our home
a bomb exploding, a child
legless in Cambodia
a child blinded by a flash
of sudden buzzing death.
a girl lost her father by
a sudden buzzing death.
In Pakistan, Yemen, Afghanistan.
Iraq, … American drones
and the incessant buzzing death
killing
killing
blind
with hate
blind
with fear
blind and indifferent to what it kills.
blind with the madness of fear and hate.
blind with the vision of the Empire.
blind buzzing death
nearer
nearer
incessant buzzing death
faceless killers
buzzing death
American killer
buzzing death
incessant buzzing
death
