Arduous Apology of the Accountable

Chintito

Just say it that you are sorry
For there are countless that you killed
[Brutality perceived not before or since]
And then believe in it too.
Just believe it that you are sorry
For there are myriads that you maimed
[Disfigured a nation bodily, not in soul]
And then mean it too.
Just mean it that you are sorry
For Generation-71 they still seek their parents
[Many for eternity shall haunt your paternity]
And then admit it too.
Just admit it that you are sorry
For your cowardice stooped to our daughters
[Their innocence you could never ever clench]
And then confess it too.
Just confess it that you are sorry
For in Operation Searchlight how evil were you
[They smeared darkness through the lust in your eye]
And then come clean that you are sorry.
Just come clean that you are sorry
For we demand your exile despite time gone by
[No sin is ever covered by religious disguise]
And then…
Say it, believe it, and mean it
And forever remain sullied
Admit it, confess it, and come clean
Or let ageless conscience be your final gasp.
