Beirut MAG
A little girls asks her mother why bombs fall on their house like
rain from the skies.
Across town a man finds his brother shot in the head and for the
first time cries.
Most boys throughout the world have friends who are fun.
Here a boy's best friend is his gun.
Even though the city is filled with misery, with sadness, and
without pity,
Many people pray that the dove of peace will soon be seen flying
through their city.
But the dove never comes.
So this madness will continue on for generations to see.
Will anyone stop this insanity?
