The Cows Are Here by jedyjedy(m): 8:18am On Jan 14, 2018
[center]THE COWS ARE HERE
(For the dead, for Benue)
Moo mee sounds of doom
Beckon in the crimson moon
Boom baam the guns boom
The cows are here, sorrow is soon

Today we start a brutal war
A war that will never be won
Blood from the bodies of orphans pour
Staining the farm and village lawn

Kill! Destroy! Mar the greatest joy
Separate! Maim! Wreck them all
This beautiful world they shall destroy
All villagers to the eternal call

To the cow lords: a war is never fully won
Murder! One kills, the other flees
This problem we have ignored for long
It is now going to kill us all.
