Monody For Eden

I cannot sing for one so many children lost the cruelty of politics the pomposity of faith I mourn beyond those I held dear and true I weep, I sing, I scream for all jaded humanity for in the innocent time of children and nations unlimited divinity waits till hatred and war loom the dead do not return and those who live on stripped of innocence welcome the henchman comes death and suicide the despair of nations the grief of the family un-consoled by heaven and this while grinning preachers and politicos put on seraphic faces and tally their profit so soon we all will know our Eden has lost itself and will not come again till guileless hearts arise
