Angels and Demons
What Demons are we now…
Humankind
Who have lost our souls
In a world where Angels fear to tread,
Detached from our humanity
By terror, bombs and yells.
And life continues on each continent,
Where new angels are born every day,
They cry against barbed wire.
Childhood leaning against the barrel of a gun,
Bellies swollen in hunger,
Bodies bleeding and torn.
They are our magic and our light
God forgive us all
We are sending them to heaven early.
