On barren fields
Heads are falling
Men with masks
That make them look
Like black ghosts
Are beheading humans
Without a thought or care
For the pain they wreck
How do young tender babies
Get turned towards this level of insanity
I see images of young boys rocking in Mosques
Reciting prayers
Like automatons
Where is the holding of the mother
Where has she gone
Beneath the earth
I hear the Dark Moon Goddess mourning
Screaming out her pain
At men and women who betrayed nature
And the feminine
On these killing fields where heads are slain
Blood runs red
But the head that needs to be cut off
Does not live on a neck
Its inside the heart of deep terror
That drives the maniacal
To such awesome
And horrific paths of destruction
Split irrevocably
By distorted ideologies
From a feeling living heart
Bleak but very powerful – well written :O)

Thank you. The Boko Haram terrorist situation in Nigeria is incredibly bleak. 7 beheadings of innocent people last week. Villages burnt and ransacked daily. Its truly tragic unfortuneately.
