Upheaval
Mourning news flash
Terror attacks;
Dead and wounded
~~~~~~~~~
Senseless acts
Vile perversions;
Human debris
~~~~~~~~~
Violent times
Scourge of evil;
Good men die
~~~~~~~~~
Why madness?
Blind self-destruct;
Empty ideology
~~~~~~~~~
The best revenge
Is forgiveness;
Love always wind
~~~~~~~~~
Thoughts of pity
Sympathy strains;
Painful empathy
~~~~~~~~~
Bullets and bombs
Explosive violence;
Terror ignites
~~~~~~~~~
Cheer cries
Happy dies;
Sorrow fruits gall
~~~~~~~~~
Bad people do
Bad things to good people;
Pain escalates horror
~~~~~~~~~
New world order
Devilish evil;
Sign of the times
~~~~~~~~~
