The Men Behind The Scene

The evanescence of red mist
The aftermath of the ashes
Entombed of the corpses
The infant's innocence
Who plays in this pool
The pool of his kinship blood

Burnt potassium nitrate and sulphur
Incinerating our breathing figure
The code of snuff in each fire
No hero comes. No hero goes
Who else is to be snuffed
Who else will meet its end

The men behind the scene
Who cares for none
As the undertaking has to be done
The people who call themselves as mercenaries
Tucks his gun and take the money upfront

Now the men behind the scene
Who brought the war and senseless means
Start his illusions and brings out his fantasy
As the kid sees that he is deprived
Comes forward to be his eternal slave

"Come forward my child, come forward
Come straightforward to my fingers
So that I can crush you with my python grip
Diminishing you with my cruel biddings
As your pleasure will not be a happy ending"

and as long as men rule the world we can expect this and much worse
as time goes on,a power struggle

Chang: You must know how powerful this poem is; your writing is so impactful; the visual I see is innocence taken away for glory; what could that be? So many things, but in this instance war. A child brought up to believe they must serve others will endure so much hardship for nothing but pain. Unbelievable writing. Thank you so very much! Dale
