cautious sparrows
hiding in the undergrowth
next door's cat

everyone remembers
the 'eye for an eye' adage
but few recall the instruction
to destroy the children
of those who destroy property.
Boney M sang of Psalm one-three-seven
and lauded the resistance movement
by the waters of Babylon
but they missed out the bit
where it instructs everyone
to dash the children against the rocks
