sacred

It’s too much sadness

 a punch in the chest

babies don’t get taken

before all the rest.

Society has havens

in thee we must

you can’t break the rules

can’t breach the trust

where was your higher calling

your humanity’s in arrears

you dare to touch the babies,

leave us with our tears

Our hearts they now flounder

and wash up all cold

Eyes they well up

and tongues they scold

Little ones and guardians belong in a bubble

evil and ilk aren’t one with the muddle

You take your ugly and take your hate

walk it out down another way

you wound us, remind us of how very much faith

it takes to wave goodbye

and believe it all waits

for the learning and schooling, the hours they’re away

the honor we place in time spent afar

Don’t mess with our babies

they said in loud voice

Don’t mess with our babies

we’ll leave you no choice

Nostrils flaring, chins tilted high

energy rising, we don’t go to die

You leave our sweet babies

go off your own way

We’ll take your crazy and turn the tide

to the ultimate 

level.
