Diversity and Equality |

 After the bombing in England I felt compelled to write something concerning the religious fanatics that are terrorizing the diversity & equality of humanity because of their beliefs.What are your thoughts?
SPEAKING OUT
Thinking like the field ox,
creates a beastly paradox.
Surmising Peace is only found,
by leaving gore uopn the ground.
Cries of Mercy are so blurred,
by fanatics of the herd.
Making trophy of human pain,
for nothing more than their gain.
Leaving tears and deepest grief,
by following their belief.
Proclaiming they will win the game,
they force all to die in vain.
Among the daily wailing crowds,
the mourners wear the blacken shrouds.
When will terror understand,
nothing last by bloody hand.
They leave naught but vultures flight,
by reading wrong about the Light.
As a being my Soul hurts deep,
to see so many laid to sleep.
By the force of other men,
that do not know they are the sin,
I hope for change with a gasp,
for them to see the Light at last.
Who will teach this rampant horde,
not to mock anothers lord.
The most important recollection,
is we all come from one reflection.
No matter what we call the name,
the one Creator is the same.
As a planet we are brothers,
coming from just different mothers.
So thinking just alittle deeper,
are we not our brothers keeper?
When we'er cut we all bleed red,
except the marching Ghostly Dead.
We must stop this Death Brigade,
or more will lay upon the glade.
When one is born they have no hate,
this was taught at a later date.
From tongues that spewed horrid vile,
that they learned growing as a child.
With all the knowledge on the shelves,
some don't see they fight themselves.
There is no room for bigotry,
if you truly look and see.
To evolve is why we'er here,
not for dread and nightly fear.
To each his own should be the sound,
for everyone that walks this ground.
We must embrace Diversity,
to find that true Equality.
Then we will all have a slice,
of that promised Paradise
---PEACE & BLESSINGS--- |

 I really liked your words.
However, you start off with the terrible bombings in London. I feel it is perhaps important to remember that, a terrorist is a freedom fighter in someone else's eyes and western governments are tyrants with huge armies, technology and huge resources that simply cannot be fought "conventionally".
If only the "individual" could right the wrongs the way you have written a truth and stop the power hungry greed of fear and grasping. |
