From the Cradle of Civilization
There grew a giant child
Knocking down sandcastles
Loud lungs wailing
How did this come to be?
You gve us something and went on
But you became petulant
Always cheated
Always angry
At our indifference
Allow me please
To apologise for your
Resentment of me
For what civiliztion has done
And you can only abhor
Jihad-me-not and remember that
ISIS was once Isis
Wed to Osiris
Goddess of Fertility
Now in the death aspect
Of the circle of life?
Because you think to not do it
Often shamed by your own
Blind behavior
But do it anyway
A compulsion
Spewed fro the voracious
Mouth of obsession
Whole continents weep blood for you.
My Cradle of civilization.
