To Starve Among Friends
By OnceUpon
They were crying, The flood of tears Knew no limits. Their shattered hopes, Lay on the ground, Helpless to their own emotions. Was it a miracle that they had been born? Or was it the sentence for some unspeakable crime? And if were the latter Hadn't they suffered enough for it? Hadn't they paid their penance For an intangible prelude Of which they knew nothing? And if they have been punished, Who had punished them? Who had the right to torture animals With no mercy Or regret? Was it the same God They worshipped, They loved And who loved them back ? Surely not. Surely. Written January 23rd, 2002 © on Jan 23 2002 07:04 AM PST 0 • 9
