“Collateral Damage”

(Collateral Damage mobile version)

I painted buildings, at night, invisible colors.
Homes too, families inside,
collateral damage.

Gave sight to
bombs, big ones,
2,000 pounders,
before autonomous
GPS-inspired
cruise missiles.

Provided guidance,
Showed the way
to desert tents
where enemies slept

and the
children
are
still.
