Madleen

I listen to what’s being said 

about the Madleen on the Med

& know that truth is somewhere hid 

upon the waves of what was did.

The what was didnt, didn’t land

The what was couldnt understand

The why was simple, couldn’t see

The how was when things ceased to be.

There ceased to be, upon the sea

A sense of common decency

Instead the story represents

A nadir in our hopes defence.

The when is now in escalation

Passing thru each senseless station

Greta and the Motley crew

A conscience held by trackers view.

The what was didnt, didn’t land

The what was couldnt understand

The why was simple, couldn’t see

The how was when things ceased to be.

To shine a light upon starvation

Manifest a live frustration

Calling on each sovereign nation

To raise a flag of indignation.

Powder white from drones above

A piracy which targets love

The sickness caused by angers hate

Upon the waves of twisted fate.

The what was didnt, didn’t land

The what was couldnt understand

The why was simple, couldn’t see

The how was when things ceased to be.

An SOS, the IDS

An emblem of mankinds distress

A tiny vessel held within

A storming cesspool full of sin.

To gather up a vast flotilla

Sail towards the arab killers

Smash the blockade and the hold

Of lies that we are being told.

The what was didnt, didn’t land

The what was couldnt understand

The why was simple, couldn’t see

The how was when things ceased to be.

To call upon the fish and furies

Speak the truth and tell the stories

Break the blockade, aid the Gazans

Swing on rope, a jungless Tarzan.

As into Danger Madleen sailed

Full knowing chances likely fail

Compelled upon a futile dream

To shine a light on darkness seen.

The heroes of the madcap mission

Facing Zions extradition

Forced to watch more propaganda

Twisting views of modern slander.

The what was didnt, didn’t land

The what was couldnt understand

The why was simple, couldn’t see

The how was when things ceased to be.
