haiti fundraiser 1

right now it's late in a land far away,
the livestock are sleeping after a long day,
the fields are all flooded,
so are the homes,
at least those still standing, most are piled like bones
of the dead who didn't make it past the thunderous quake,
so i ask that you give, help the haitians to take
back a little bit of life, in this moment where strife,
death and destruction litter everything in sight in the dark of night,
little girls are getting raped, vigilantes rove and take
from whoever they can, a quick scan shows mouth to hand
sustenance, united nations and haitian cops are observing this
from a distance,
you can be sure hurricanes wont miss hispanola as their season hits,
the lives of 1.3 million people displaced, 230,000 lost lives interlace
with your soul right here in this moment, in this very place,
with our intentions
we shall reshape the fates
