Thirteen days have past <br />They are still rioting <br />Rioting and fighting <br />Will it last? <br /> <br />The burning cars of France <br />The town of wine and romance <br />Decorated with an appearance <br />Of a town that has just gone to war <br />Without any notice in advance <br /> <br />There was a time yesterday <br />When a life was priceless <br />I ask is it worth a thousand cars? <br />Is it worth tens of lifeless buildings? <br />The commoners are powerlessly crying <br />The fighting goes on <br /> <br />A PowerStation gave death to two <br />It also gave birth to <br />The burning cars of France <br /> <br />Copyright 2005 - Sylvia Chidi<br /><br />Sylvia Chidi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-burning-cars-of-france/
