The He was Absent


The wind blew violently
but not heard,
Smoke drifted,
Gunpowder fell on thy shoulders
We coveted for an isolated death
Everything , though overshadowed
The desire, the lust, the hunger
Against the rattling guns
Against the going off bombs
What a sound !

Rat..rat..rat..rat..rata..bang!
Rat..rat..rat..rat..rata..bang!

The eagles hovered around lewdly
in the night of deserty whirls
And the Creators fell on ground
The worshipers died hard
The snow froze the blood
Breaths, devoured by black air
Suddenly the air had a color
But the sound did not cease

Rat..rat..rat..rat..rata..bang!
Rat..rat..rat..rat..rata..bang!

We prayed all night long, but to no avail
Crying to dip into our own tears
You always asked – where is my daddy?
Where is my creator?
But the Creator was dead
The god absent
against the deadening sound
as we continually heard

Rat..rat..rat..rat..rata..bang!
Rat..rat..rat..rat..rata..bang!
