Terror

by Jan Oscar Hansen

Today I saw a hawk suddenly appear, swooping and
grabbing a sparrow standing on a phone line.

It sat on an old oak tree, tearing its victim apart
and since it was sated, other sparrows flew about
without fear. The human world is more complex.

We use religion to commit murder, this time as has
often happened, Islam a peaceful religion,
has once again been used as an excuse for murder.

This modern life soaked in blood, but we only react
to what we see, grisly murder enacted by idiots,
who do not deserve to be understood by liberals.

Yet I wish there was a phone camera ready when
drones tore limbs from the innocents´ bodies, most
of them children who do not understand why.
