Have you seen the news today?
the suffering, the sin?
Just close your eyes or look away.
So, where can I begin?
These wars are aired for us to watch,
our interest lost in time.
The crimes go up each day a notch,
their marketing sublime.
They raise concerns for unknown foes
who travel through the skies.
This peril keeps us on our toes,
their blindfolds shield our eyes.
If anyone could raise a flag
and shake us all awake,
a better world? A new hashtag?
oh what a world we’d make.
