*Sad Clouds*

O man of power

Do you not see the pain

In the eyes

Of all those grieving souls

Staring straight at you

Do you not hear the screams

Of all the trees and birds and lizards

The anguished pleas

Of the fleas and the bees

Buzzing around you

Do you not hear

The violent protests

Of the earth

Everywhere you go

Do you not hear the cries

Of abused power

From the silent hell

Of violent history

Do you not see the sadness

On the faces

Of the passing clouds

As they watch you fall

From the blows of

Your own power
