War and peace Poems
To All In The So-Called Defence Industry
by Adrian Mitchell
Arms trade workers, here's an early warning
You might wake up tomorrow morning
And find that this is the glorious day
When all your jobs will just melt away
Because the people of the world are going to make sure
There'll be no more, no more, no more war
So now's the time to switch your occupation
From dealing in death and desolation
Don't hang around now you've been told
The international murder trade's about to fold

O Earth, that hast no voice, confide to me a voice,
O harvest of my lands—O boundless Summer growths!
O lavish brown parturient earth—O infinite, teeming womb.
A song to narrate thee.

على عنق الجزار
ولتطلق أعين شعبي النار

Hija For Emerson's Birthday
by Stephen Yenser
"Just ask yourself," we said back in those days,
"Is this world better off without Saddam Hussein?"
Now that's a simple question. Just ask yourself.
It turned up starkly, undeniably
As that left hand inside the trench Marines were digging
At the prison turned "facility."
That was one day's headlined excavation.
Meanwhile, the relics from the tell near Nasiriyah
