A Hutu hand polishes Fires… Squeals… Deaths… Spent And gored They flew in water To douse the fires They lathered their palms To calm the squeals They dug up the trenches And buried the bodies, free Still They pried the contract From beaten victors Cartridges Corned beef And rifles… And took it home In the plane That brought the water.
