my country has been destroyed

I am joining the refugees of the world

who are seeing their countries destroyed

death and destruction everywhere

and God--as ever--punishing the good

while the wicked prosper--

and where we will end up--who but this God knows--

maybe now the dying world is our home--

and we will die in some shadow land

that is our worst nightmare come true--

how crowded those refugee roads will become

too soon to prepared for--

too late to matter to what we thought

this new age would be...
