NIGHTMARES

By Jeanne Fiedler

Genocide, Genocide
Wow! The Turks are bold
Behold, Behold
Tyranny is sold.
Let out the prisoners
the murderers and thieves
Let them out on the Armenians
For everyone to see...

They raped us and
murdered us
So many  more
I'm told
Then I read in my
History books
God, they were cold!

Our ascendents
were Christian
but it's not a big deal
That wasn't the reason
It wasn't the appeal.
They were bloodthirsty,
and angry
with such intense hate
they massacred us
and massacred us
There was no escape

Let the Turkish descendents
finally decide
to admit  to the responsibility
of our dark genocide...

Peace to Turkish relations
Peace to the Armenian nation...

The remnants of our country
so beautiful to see...

Finally free...
