[hometext] => The deadly games of the invaders...
[bodytext] => They creep menacingly over the border And come charging into our land – Thus begin their savage hide-and-seek games With guns, gadgets, grenades in hand. One party goes hides in the caves Or hastens to the shadows of the hills; The other gets into sovereign jets That hover over us and roar and kill. We watch the debris pile onto the land, Our bodies scatter across the streets, But they play their hideous little games – Their conscience corrodes, their reason depletes. They’re uninvited -- yet the transgressors Continue to prey within our precincts. We’re exhausted by their unruly rituals: Their drone attacks, their suicidal instincts.
