IN REALMS OF POETRY
Brothers
By NATALIE MATTHEWS

Horrors. The horrifying smell OF
scorching flesh.
A scene too CHASTITY for human eye
10 view,
Enacted in a land where Christian
ity reiRns.
Then Why must some fight and gal
lantly die.
To pave the way that no others
shall be placed upon burning
pyre?.
What hideous freaks OF nature car
they be
Who stand fixed with complacent
smiles and see.
A brothers frame dangling from a
tree
That nature meant not thus to be
defied?,
What fiends are they. Ehouls. lust
ing and So vile
That they can thus enjoy the agon-
izing cry
OF one whom they themselves have
tortured:
As fendshly they stand and watch
him die.
But see. see that menacing ghost
that stands so near
lowering DER the smoking burning
pyre
Pointing warning finger at the
host
OF men who in grave fear doth view
that ghost.
Alas! Their past has caught up with
them at last,
The ghost. like some droling ghoul
Shall feed upon their cankerous
souls.
Shall always stand before their eyes
Emitting fumes like scorching
flesh.
Flesh OF those whom once did love
and live
Just 10 die upon burning pyrel
Your souls like naked heathens
Shorn of your feeble pride.
Shall md no loin cloth your sham,
10 hide.
The world shall ace. ~ naked you
shall stand
A hend. a hideous monster, not q
man,
How long. say, how long shall
this thing he.
When through blind ignorance you
refuse 10 see
The Eroes injustice Of II all,
When We like Patriots answer t.
the call.
when the Flag stands for liberty
and right
Hangs over US and view our out
ragged plight,
o God. q merciful God. We turn 10
Thee
Help them q God, Thou will 10 sec
Even through the smoke that rises
from the pyre.
Let them know that Thou standeth
nigh.
And let them know the grossness
OF their sine.
And see MS all as brothers.
Brothers beneath the skin.
How often has this question risen
even to the Presidents chat"
And 20 mighty Nation. asking
Is this fair
That our cons should scorch and
die
Upon flaming pyre?.
How often have men stood. endured
the heat
OF cooking human flesh they dare
not eat!
How long shall thev such eallous
deeds repeat.
As they some ravenous cannibals
from ont the past
Who lick their fowls At the slgh'
ofa human repast,,
How can q civilized world stand By
and see
The belchinT flames around q beau
tiful tree
Where hanVs q man.
And dr. r. raise a helping hand
oh God oh nerciful God what
shall be nc fate
or men thus stranded IN . land
where hate
Runs riot? Make clean the slate
Wine out the sin,
And make ms all brothers.
Brothers beneath the skin.
