The faces behind the blood mask
The faces behind the blood mask
In the history of history, two names are heavier than others.
Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu.
Not because they were thoughtful, not because they brought peace;
But because every time the fire was extinguished
Their hands had matches in Austin.
They are the butchers of the century.
Every day, with a new map,
They move a line, kill the border, change the name of the lake.
But what never changes,
This is the point where the bomb must land.
With the dawn of any sun,
In a corner of the planet, the sound of the explosion is wrapped.
And those two are sitting behind their tables,
With smiles made of human skin,
And eyes that are not to pain,
Rather, they are sensitive to blood on the soil.
They feed on war.
From smoke, from the cry of mothers, from the bones under the rubble.
Their faces were once human.
But with any command of murder,
A line broke in their face.
With every false smile,
Something collapsed from their human face.
What is left now,
There are two bodies in the power outfit.
With prominent jaws, teeth that are still warm
From the fresh meat of their victims.
They say freedom,
But the words are pulled out of the wounded throat of the world.
With hands that are no longer made for caressing
But only to squeeze the trigger.
Mirrors, when they are honest,
They show their true face:
Humanistic masks
Whose back is the cruel look of the animal
With thirst for blood,
For death,
To show.
And the world,
Tired of seeing the repetition of crime in new frames,
It is only silent.
Not from ignorance,
But from this bitter truth:
Butchers are still alive.
And they are still thirsty.
