Poetry Post 56 (and nothing silly to say)

Soldiers Of Jah
Though politically neutral we were caught in its tangle
Genocided, ghettoized, and segregated by a purple triangle
Persecuted by those with the rafter in their eye
It is better to live than to die
But better to be a martyr than a soldier
So by the might of Jah we stand shoulder to shoulder
In our holy battle no sword was lifted nor gun was shot
But the Nazis sent us to the camps to rot
Our only weapons was a Gospel of Love
Preaching and praising our Lord above
Jehovah gave us our soul that he Devil tries to take
In a goal so vain in effort to make us God's name forsake

Miscarriage
Did you feel the baby kick in the womb
Did you see the baby through the ultrasound
We're turning the den into a nursery room
We're decorating it with teddy bears and rainbows all around
If it's a boy we'll name him James
If it's a girl we'll name her Ann
We are buying toys, crayons and family games
We are saving up a college fund that's going as planned
We bought this crib and this carriage
And before it's full born I love full hearted
Until my wife had a miscarriage
And our family was destroyed as quickly as it started

Sane, Safe, Senseless
We all play dumb
To keep ourselves numb
Because the numb can feel no pain
And the thoughtless can't be insane
And so the two together work out
To hide what life is all about
