the children will suffer in time


The sky of darkness
The dim light shadows
Waving at the crowd
By the branches of leaves

The eyes watch it
The fear hasn’t registered
Everyone will think
There is nothing to be afraid

They will walk or drive
Passing through traffic lights
Afraid it will be pouring rain
The sky of darkness cries

But there is a cloud of darkness
Hanging it deep in the mind
Pouring out expletives in silence
The children will suffer in time

It’s the education policies
It never rings up the sign
It only shows the poor tastes
On race and religion again

The bold thunders roll
It never wants to see it again
The sky of darkness
The children will suffer in time
