LOOKING FOR

 

Esther and Afet

we were looking for innocent children

measuring fear and sore on the tongue waves

angry

same time the fog evaporates and scream

with coffin creaks

- we keep looking

mother tears tightened

on a piece of lasso, roaring

offend

father was contrite as sharp

gleaming blade hurt

: "every body know, you were gone and never come back anymore ...."

stream the cruel claws of death

call .... call ....

only one part of the story of human misery

silencing no power

we are still looking beyond fear

to appear was the body floats

winds toppled

the sky was overcast
