Hello dear poet ! Very interesting write. One weeee lil' thought I'd like to submit......."Territory" is very much needed for "Religion" to prosper. And religion is a man made word for: Devotional and ritual observences often containing a moral code governing the conduct of human affairs. I tend to lean toward the Romans as they conqured territories, and they had many ritual observences, many pagan<~~~not that I agree mind ya ! Have a blessed day, much love, james

Dear Anne-Lise, An insightful and thought-provoking poem. In the old West, there were actually some battles fought for water rights. Still, I totally agree that we are responsible for our own actions and that life CAN be "anything you want." Well done! Love, Carolyn

HI Anne-Lise. Love your fibonacci. Haven't tried that form. Yours came out well with a universal concern. Sometimes, wars are waged because of a few men's greed. They then capitalize on the emotion and pride of their followers, to push their own selfish agenda.

Excellent pen, Anne- Lise! Your piece got me here thinking when I read it my very dear friend. Sadly anything can create wars in this world and it had for centuries, yes, sometimes is more than religion like you state in your poem, sometimes is a territorial thing like it takes place in the Middle East for centuries. Anything these days can create wars, and that's one of too many of man's flaws. A 7+ from me!smiling.Hope you're having a wonderful Sunday, Anne. In my prayers! Wishing you a very lovely evening!In his light! God bless you!:) Love n' hugs! xxx D.
