"The Writing in Blood

The fist of the world closes.
The bloody gift is given
And the wound widens;
History unspirals and
The fingerprints of death
Dig deep.

Fury and destruction;
Defilement and fire;
The only victory is for
Life’s devourer.

The child of humiliation is horror.
Who has forgotten this?

The olive trees are felled;
The spring of life is spoiled.
We endure on the edge
Of despair.

Meanwhile, in murder,
The fist spells out the future.
Blood, it writes.
Bring me more."

--Tom Hirons in Clarion
