He WAS Important

There he lay
On the front page
In a pool of attention red
Faces of those
Who presumed to shoot
Took a photo opp
Above his head.

See them applying
Bandages
Oh how merciful and kind
But what of this boy's
Destroyed flesh,
And the torment
Of his mind?

Why is the FOCUS
Not on that
To show the HARM
Of these mistakes?
The young man
Gazes from the ground
Not even anger left on his face.

The "heroes" get
Their names in print
The boy, I guess he didn't count
Except to the ones
Who feel his loss
And the God soon bringing
Vengeance down.

Babble On

Pray, pray, pray, pray
"Babylon"
But Jah's not listening
To you.

Feel you've got
All god-bases covered
But you're not worshiping
The One that's True.
