Another One For The Hilux :'( by Enoquin(f): 10:49am On Mar 20, 2015 |
The dawn comes lying to us all It whispers untrue promises Promises of hope and fairness Promises of longevity and laughter Promises of deceit. For how can we explain the Hiluxes that come With back open ready to carry those That would come back no more The day is bright and fair But not so fair to the spilled blood For where do we lay our blames? At the feet of the careless drivers, Or at the crushed ones with scattered body parts; Foolish enough to believe in the day’s promise Or do we shake our fists at the skies; That whispers hope of a better tomorrow? Another bloodied body for the Hilux Filled with dead dreams and promises Filled with mouths that sought to protest at the unfairness Another one flung into the Hilux Another horror to gaze at with gazes averted Another graphic undignified picture for the media Another tired drive to the mortuary For tomorrow, they’ll yet be another one for the Hilux Dedicated to those who have lost their lives on the road either as passengers or bystanders. May their souls rest in peace 1 Like 2 Shares |
