Auld Lang Syne

Should Truth

And Justice

Be Forgot.

Our Wrongs

Defined By

Rights.

Should Skin

That’s Brown

Get Out

Of Town.

Our Days

Now Put

On ICE.

Should

Bombs

And Drones

Be Launched

By Phones.

Borders.

Ripped

To Shreds.

Children

Playing

In The

Ruins.

Killed

While

They’re

In Bed.

Should

Old

Illusions

Of Peace

On Earth.

Wake Our

Living Dead.

Let’s Hope

Delusions

End Is Near.

Let’s Find

A Way

To Face

The Fear.

Let’s Drink

That Cup

Of Kindness

Dear.

For

Auld

Lang

Syne.
