Mourn too late at the thrown bones of fate.

Small ghettoes of the mind, open for business

Better to keep thought away

Scores to settle

Wait for a better day

When incestuous mongrels and media whores --  

God is great!

Too late! Too late! Too late!

We’ll show you how we pray.

The language of the gun.

Scatter! Run! Run!

Nothing to me

Crying, screaming, lost dignity

You should have thought of that before

You stupid cunt lying curled on a toilet floor

Life’s not a game

Shot frame by frame

There’s still time

This isn’t a crime

Smoked your fucking disrespect

Your rude snobbery has horns

Goads us and leaves us no choice.

Balaclava, bomb and gun

Our god is One.

needed a couple of reads to appreciate but when I got there I really liked it. We could all do with less interesting times couldn't we

I've changed the age rating mainly because of the cunt - you could change it to 12 if you prefer, but I think pg is a bit optimistic

Another powerful bit of writing from you. Good writing, but awful truth of it.

Like insert, I had to read this several times to get the full impact.  It's an immensely powerful piece - the only line I still can't quite get is "When incestuous mongrels and media whores"...maybe I'm just being a bit dense.

I'm a bit dense too seashore. clumsy, a form of justification, almost a cliche, a throwway liine that comes before, Allahu Akbar and throws away lives. I've actually convinced myself that's what I meant, whiich is quite impressive for me.
