LEGENDARY WRATH

	By Boghos Luder Artinian MD

	Are their pitiful shrieks still reverberating
	In the burned-down churches of Armenian towns, O Lord?
	Is their unclotted blood still seeping
	In the soil of our desecrated lands?
	Are a million ghosts haunting the very homes
	In which their physical twins were massacred, O Lord?
	Is the earth shaking under the feet of murderers
	And toppling their dwellings on their heads?
	Are the heavens raining fires to chastise
	Earthlings so blind to injustice?
	Where is your legendary wrath, O Lord,
	For the horrible deeds of the Ottomans?
