[hometext] => Why do we kill our children? And eachother, for that matter
[bodytext] => So they call it “holy” Holy war An oxymoron for sure Holy war or Jihad There’s so much death That doesn’t feel like God People so brainwashed They blow themselves up 18 virgins, and lots of holy wealth If God is truly the Father of all I’m sure he wouldn’t approve Of this at all In fact I think he’d be pretty ***** We’d all be grounded for this That’s what MY Dad would do If I did such hateful acts to you A Father loves his children And wants to keep them safe Wants them to be happy Find love, and populate His home with grandchildren Certainly not kill them But so many kids, in this alleged “holy” war Are dying Never even knowing what for The bombs, from “both” sides Just simply fall there There’s no recess from that I’m sure all the children Wish the adults would take a time out We ask them, “What were you thinking?” Why’d you do that? But we let them starve, blow them up Let disease kill them In places we could easily get to and bring them plenty of medicine and food And we will NEVER get them back I’m sure they are wondering What the hell WE were thinking If God would just ground The insane, the cruel, and the sound The makers of bombs And the rulers that toss them around And any one who hates enough To take you down That’s a “Holy war” I’d like to be around [comments] => 2 [counter] => 181 [topic] => 39 [informant] => twbanter [notes] => To maintain the correct comment to poem ratio, please do not comment on your own work.
