They kill

Palsetinians,

Do they not?:
 

but –

so what?

Do we

Our History
 

Or have we

They killed

Native Africans:

Native Asians,

Native Americans,

in thousands,

Native Australians,

not a few

They killed

them all

blithely
 

Once

time:
 

All the way

from Mandalay

to Timbuktu

back then –
 

And they

Their Preachers

Still

Preaching:

Thou Shall not Kill

‘Liberte, egalite!

And Justice

for All!’
 

Slogans , inspiring:

How they keep us

in thrall!

O, and

blessed day –

Ukrainians

who daily die:
