Love Birds Honored

Love Birds Honored

1 min

Love birds, who wanted to fly

together,

with their wings open swirling in the wind;

who wanted to fly

singing ballads of joy

beyond boundaries of casts, racism, and malice,

are captivated in the name of pride

for the pride of the name

that can be abolished with a simple practice

and changed filing a form,


Love birds who wanted to pay tribute to the love of God

loving unconditionally

are honored

in that very name of God's love

for their audacity to rise above

with milk, bread, and honey,

then also with fire, coal and blood.


Love birds, who simply loved

with utmost compassion

are festooned

with the garland of rotten flesh and bones

ironically by the vegetarians

who have ruined the green fields of my once fertile land

with the poison of their polluted waters and thoughts


These egoist and egotist won’t ever know,

their sins and crimes they've been accounted for;

They won’t go cleared through;

Their names will disappear like a puff of smoke,

in the gutters their honor shall be thrown
