This poem describes witnessing children being harmed by sinister forces, suggested to be oppressive authorities, represented as hooded serpents and diabolic faces injecting venom and feasting on young blood. The speaker and others are helpless to speak out against the abuse for fear of facing the same fate of being shredded by beastly spirits.

And saw the hooded serpents Hidden under black boots Injecting venom in innocence Our mouths sealed and shut And the diabolic faces of evil Feast on our young blood Grating buds on healthy spray Were helpless, forgive me sons We cant speak out whats on mind Or we find ourselves shredded too By the beastly spirits out there
