Killing them with kindness

Poem based on actual recent news events from Afghanistan

Kabullshit 11/2/1O

Year 9

Now we're killing them with kindness
For that's just what we do
To help them redevelop and even have a Zoo.

Killing them with kindness when we drag them out of bed
Cuff little hands behind and shoot them through the head.

Oh we're killing them with kindness
For that's just what we do.

lf they're Uzbek or Hazara, Pashtun or Tajik
It really doesn't matter if they play hide and seek
As we'll bomb all their weddings and their funerals too,
For that's just, well that's just what we do.

Oh we're killing them with kindness
Killing them with kindness

And if you hear we slit pricks at Bagram or elsewhere
Do remember that it's done with tender loving care,
As we're killing them with kindness
For that's just what we do
To help them redevelop and even keep that Zoo.
