Chechen Kid's Hysteria
Lancelot {Bilal} ©  Jan/2001

I saw a young kid on TV
Face scratched like old Chevy

His parents were killed
And siblings horror filled

Had a bruised body
Surroundings were gowdy

Russian soldiers got inside
Pushed his grandma to one side

Killed all the elders in a sec
Destroyed lives without a check

Child saw his people die
Hysterical and made him cry

He saw end of an era
His life now a new para

Don't be surprised to see
This child grow up to be

Hard, tough, rebellious, fierce
Cuz none made his enemy pierce

People with blood on hands
Killing just for several grands

For this child a big blow
He saw lotso blood flow

Doesn't know where to go
Doesn't know friends or foe

All faces seem similar
Can't tell which one a killer!

O! Allah help the innocent
Cuz You're Omnipotent.

(tears coming down my cheeks) Oh Bilal, that is awful! It just saddens me to see how cruel and selfish people can be nowadays, and leave a needed heart in peril. (sniff) I pray that a change follows in the future for society to care for these poor people. This was so very powerful! Thank you for sharing, my soulbrother!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
