With theseĀ 
FiveĀ 
FingersĀ

Thy hand killedĀ 
Strangled lifeĀ 
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā Destroyed housesĀ 
Bringing still
Ā Ā Ā Ā birthĀ 
To the motherĀ 
Ā Ā Ā The motherĀ 
Ā Ā Ā Ā Ā She is in tearsĀ 
Ā Ā Wept upon the floorĀ 
Ā In floods she layĀ 
Ā  Ā  In floodsĀ 
Ā  Ā  Ā  FloodsĀ 
Ā OfĀ 
Ā  PainĀ 
Ā  Ā  Ā SufferingĀ 
Ā  Ā  BloodĀ 
Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  GhostĀ 
Ā Of childĀ 
Ā  Ā  Ā I am hereĀ 
Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Upon the earthĀ 
Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  WasĀ 
Ā  Ā  Ā  OnceĀ 
Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Your childĀ 
Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā To the child coffinĀ 
Ā  Ā  Ā We walkĀ 
Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā In floodĀ 
Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  FloodĀ 
Ā  Ā  Ā  Pain
Ā  The sufferingĀ 
Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  CollapseĀ 
Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  IntoĀ 
Ā  Ā  The dustĀ 
Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  For the childĀ 
Ā  Ā We never heldĀ 
Ā  Ā  Ā Ā With theseĀ 
FiveĀ 
FingersĀ
