And I have heard it said (Simon de Montfort goes to Paradise)...
And I have heard it said…
And I have heard it said that it must come to pass,
IF, by killing and unleashing torrents of blood...
IF
By bombing and massacring
Women and children
With Shaheed drones and Khinsal hypersonic missiles
Massive Ordinance Penetrators
And other Bunker busters
Demolishing from the skies
In a cowardly and anonymous fashion
Thousands of kilometres away
(Per donas aucirre e per efans delir)
Over vast territories closely monitored by satellite
Whole neighbourhoods viable places to live
Schools hospitals gardens crowded streets
Markets teeming with life and laughter
Places of worship and community culture
All the old life of yore
Individuals birds pets
Young people and old grand-parents whole families
Second-hand cars paid for on monthly credit
Forever buried under the dust and broken concrete
Houses blocks of flats
Years spent getting up early and working hard
To live with dignity to bring up kids
By tightening our belts to pay for their education
Replacing travelling and eating out with PlayStations
And television
By practising prayer and fasting
By banning the wearing of shoes on vacation
(Per baros destruire e per Paratge aunir)
