Bricks and Bombs and No Mortar Spared
“We don’t need no ‘education,’* we don’t need no thought at all…
Yes, you can turn your face to the wall,
But you can still hear those children call?
Then turn your hearts to stone
and damn them all – but, too poetic ay?
So, ok, just send in more bombs.
They have no writer's block or conscience
to confuse your hidden meaning,
metaphors as deterrents justifies
all the screaming - no?
The writing of and writing off history
couldn't have been made easier,
with an apt dedication of 'Sod them All.'
But as they do, the ghosts you made,
will come back to haunt you
when they invade in 'their' true and
proud colours, despite they were,
before death, burned from their own
glorious display, but when they do,
reunited in their nations,
they'll have their way.
When your democracy finally crumbles
to lay at your heels amid you, our tyrants,
your shadows and grumbles; another legacy
will be left behind in those dead bricks
- the doppelgangers from your
bare faced lie of a wall...
Then as the sirens go again
and no arms are found,
except those burned and maimed,
we will take cover once more
to protect ourselves from the shadows
chasing ghosts, because once is never enough.
Someone much inferior once said,
'Tear down the Wall'*
Yes, let's tear down the sodden walls,
Damn you all! - Just for a change
of pace and maybe, just maybe, save
the human race, while leaving you all as naked
as they were at the end of your disgrace,
and with nowhere to turn your shame,
until you again think you have the balls to build
your own 'Mad Bugger's wall.'*
*Pink Floyd
