The Coalition Awakens

The Coalition Awakens

the UN resolution is not the new hope but the imperial empire, striking back/

cybernetic phantoms menace the skies/

screaming jets brutally bomb resistance airspace/

technicolour explosions blossom into galactic cinder strewn firestorms and pulverised concrete fragments/

this whole region is a ghetto where genocide is a way of death, to live, it is best to leave now/

drones attack without compassion, flown by video game addicted patriots, the revenge of the sick/

civilian collateral damage is statistical evidence of terror/

how cheap is our opinion of life? and what are we trying to prevent?

terrified at the return of the jihadi? terrified of the other, the allegorical alien invasion swarm fallen from hell/

it is not a coincidence that the resistance base is in a green and pleasant republican land governed by a fairytale princess whose champions fly lightspeed star ships/

whilst

the real war is fought elsewhere in wreckage strewn polluted deserts populated by dusty masked fanatics occupying freemarket trading zones/

but

there are no borders in this four dimensional horror show/

if the force is willing, there is no force but the force/

rebels are the enemy/

the truth is always lies/

peace is always war/

this is star wars, not Syria wars/
