Leave No One Behind They have found some more remains That have lain hidden for so long And no matter what excuse they make There is something surely wrong. What if you were a Family Who had nothing to lay to rest And then, now it begins all over As new hopes are put to an old test. They want to have some closure A place to visit those they lost To have a private place to go The least deserved, for their awful cost. Haven't they lost enough? Haven't they felt enough pain? Without wondering, “How many more?” Places not searched, still remain. It seems to be really obvious These lost ones should have been found Back then, not five years later Once more the victims were let down. With all of our technologies And with proper leaders in place GZ should be searched once more For even the smallest trace. How much longer must those souls wait And will the families ever really know Some peace and put them to rest In some private place where they can go. All Americans should be outraged With many from some other Nations Just one more thing to add to The list of family's frustrations. We shouldn't blame the workers Those in charge are those to blame Like almost all priorities Just part of the money game. Just like the “Commission” The only way things will get done Is when the People demand it And we should, each and everyone. Bureaucracy and politics Have once more raised their ugly head Bowing to uncaring sources And not doing what's right, instead. 11.1.06 Del "Abe" Jones Mankind's greatest accomplishment is not the revolution of technology, it is the evolution of creativity. |
