A butterfly flutters through the streetz,
Above the dried bloodstains;
Its wings bat away toxic breaths
Perverse and untamed.
A butterfly flutters through the streetz—
Great beauty of little worth.
Through tears gas, dodging bullets
With wings like the Fellbeasts of Middle-earth.
A butterfly flutters through the streetz,
No smile, no glance, no words to speak.
It wipes away a child’s fresh tear
As it passes by its cheek.
