Blood sacrifices for economic interests,
They feed themselves off the flesh of the masses,
War is a bloody business…
Merchants of murder, Life they devour,
The world over, around the hour, the people suffer,
Things look grim, but not for the profit margin,
Yet another dawning, our troubles remaining,
How do we stop the wailing, the killing, the dying?
Black Star News poet Ras Memnon is a poet, lyricist and songwriter who was inspired to write poetry by the Reggae Dub-Poets.
