This time I will remember This time I will remember A mother caressing her dead son’s forehead Preparing him pre-maturely for his final destination This time I will remember Innocent diners lined up and shot at point blank Caught in somebody else’s war This time I will remember Blood splattered walls with grotesque imagery Freshly burnt flesh shattered mirrors and broken lives This time I will remember A mother and her two young kids charred beyond recognition While the Dad put public good ahead of the personal This time I will remember Gun totting terrorists creating mayhem on the streets Target practicing at a railway station This time I will remember Backpackers at a cafe or receptionists at a hotel Reduced to pieces for no reason This time I will remember How like vultures our politicians encircle dead bodies And feed on the rotting flesh This time I will remember How they usurp Z class security at our expense And let us be killed like flies This time I will remember How our oily babus clamour for promotions While a plane for commandos lies buried in files This time I will not forget I will let my wounds fester I will continue to rage against these parasites I will demand accountability I will not allow countless lives to be broken I will not allow politicians to divide us This time I will remember And I will prevail
