Grape Eaters by Kindoo: 11:06am On Mar 25, 2017 |
The fathers
A heart so wicked
Desperately wicked!
They cut the young glory from rising
Destroy those they pleased
Made suffer the orphan
Deprive the widow
Led the blind to pit
Give the dumb to mockery
Hammer nail on the deaf hear
Pursue lame to run
Torment the poor
The lived in joy of this wickedness
It gladdens their hearts
They drink to it.
Who can catch us
The gods are far off
The men won't dare
And so they planted a vine yard
And of it
Their ending no one can pray for
It does not end their The children The wind of cry Then and now The land suddenly dry. No food, no water Hunger, death Other time, the rain fall The plants yields Hope giving blessed harvest But the locust came, devour all Burden on the shoulder Yoke on the neck That land is sick The people are diseased They never rest of trouble Their teeth ache Oh what have we done The gods have forsaken us, Hummm! But your father ate the grape Your teeth must ache Though they sleep, there works live on. No one truly dies The soul live on So also the work that make them while here. The spirit of the founding fathers tormenting the land. Mercy may turn thing if the children in themselves will turn OMÓJUWÚRÀ from www.wukes..com 1 Like |
