Forgotten

Soldiers on tiktok,
Dancing on death
With glee celebrate
A baby’s last breath

Reducing a people
To rubble and mud
Without hesitation
They call for more blood

With heads in the sand,
Reality denied.
The whole world watches
Televised genocide

These soldiers are children
Of those killed en masse
In brutal detention
and poisonous gas

Do they not understand
We are part of a chain
Can they not in their hearts
Remember that pain?

For their’s is a story
Of hearts become rotten
But now they behave
As if they’ve forgotten
