Angels For Mercy
Lifeless they lay
Like curving with hands stretched
Objects of pity and disgust:
So we have sealed our eyes, our ears.
To us it’s a rat in the king’s palace
So the priest walks around them
The authority destroy them
And the rest of us all spit on them.
Let us open our eyes, our ears;
To see – those created equal,
Only blessed different
To hear – a call of mercy
not of bother
For to us a lowly being
but up high the judge
an angel of mercy.
