Angels Await Our Decision
Don Hynes
Bombs fall in demented rain
children with bodies exploded
scream to the sky
the Earth receiving
their blood with sorrow.
Cold reason finds
both sides to blame
thus no one at fault
and retreats to the library
for more study.
The Earth cannot retreat
and we are Her children.
We plead to the sky
but angels await
our decision.
There is only this time
and the ones who choose
death are determined.
Let our words be clear.
Let our will not waver.
The season is harsh
and those in the breach
depend on our choices.
Don Hynes
