the reporters


Reporters die
Reporters jail
Risk their lives
To bring the news
To the world

They don’t earn a lot
They enjoy the job
Going in the front lines
Knowing it is the news
The world will need it

The work they risk
Facing the battles on the field
Fighting for justice and freedom
Through their work of words
Yet they will face death every time

The justice of the truth
The reporters will try to do
The brave ones will risk it
Losing souls, a sacrifice for a better
The world needs it to know

Jamal Khashoggi
Killed in Turkey
By the Arabs hit squad
Body cut to pieces
Using acid to dissolve it

He was critical of the Saudi government
His writing and exposures to the world of news
The powerful Saudi didn’t like it
So, Jamal lost his life in a terrible way
May his soul find peace leaving his world
