Be the first to know
The news advertise
Who cares for war agenda?
No, do not want to be the first person
To know true stories of attacks
Bloodshed, insult of the dead,
Horrid scenes, blood curling
Stench of smoke from pictures
Weeping grandmothers
Wounded carried in arms
Neither repeated replay
Come Septembers
Heartless media-makers
Kindly spare us.
Patriotism
Sensationalisms, Sexism
Exhibitionism Kith and kin
Capitalism, Communism,
Jingoism, ant, pro Secularism
Ant, pro Socialism,
In that matter religionist-ism
Nor Cockeyed Cultism, Occultism
Please leave us with our choice
Of being the last, made powerless thus.
Have no ambition to be the first to know.
