This place is war-torn,
All humanity, gone.
The place was full of violence,
Now all that remains is silence.
They said that it was their right that women be raped,
They stripped her when she was draped.
Gunshots are all one hears,
No one notices the flood of tears.
Said they, we have to search for biological weapons,
Now see, hang how the threads with sequins.
All the people here are starved,
And all their faces scarred.
And as everyone dies one by one,
Only silence and emptiness bequeath the throne.
