Tuesday May 18th is a day in history It's a day
that has been contantly repeated for years and
years A day no more or less significant than any
other day It's only a blur in the endless carnage
and suffering That possesses the stinging
similarity to the Nazi holocaust These atrocities,
however, are happening right now It's just another
day of ethnic cleansing in Bosnia Ethnic cleansing
is the Serbian invented euphemism Describing the
atrocities being committed against Muslim and
Croatian civilians The war that began in April
1992 was predictable What was not so predictable
was the cold-blooded murder of civilians, Nor was
the massive deportation in over crowded cattle
cars Of trains to concentration camps Upon arrival
at these camps prisoners are sheared like sheep
Denied medical attention, food and shelter many
die in these camps every day The grass has all
been ripped out to eat When it rains prisoners
find themselves standing up to their knees in mud
Only a handful of these prisoners bore arms
against the Serbian soldiers The Serbian
government has given orders that special treatment

forty years of age Tens of thousands of these
young girls and women receiving this special
treatment Were systematically raped with the
sickening plan of impregnating them with Serbian
seeds And making them bare a stranger, which is
then to be taken away The world strongly stated
"Never Again" after World War II This
may be the reason why most of the world seems to
be ignoring this modern day genocide Tuesday May
18th, 1993 ws the date on the newspaper that held
the gruesome picture of A woman holding a skull
that once belonged to a loved one This single
picture outraged me and opened my eyes to the
ethnic cleansing I had previously overlooked as
just another war? It was a slap in the face that I
still feel to this day A constant reminder of the
pain caused by human ignorance and greed Almost
two years and one song later and nothing's
changed, except for the death toll How muchlonger
will the people sit silently by... as history
repeats?
