Violence
Myriad the masks in violent times,
Fear sets to task such crazy crimes.
Witness harsh rut of fear that fears,
Such scenes now jut madness most *****.
Where is the good in violent acts?
The killing mood signs evil tact.
There is no peace in killing spree,
Hate will not cease in violent seas.
Fear and terror breed suspicion,
Hate reaps horror in destruction.
There is no cure to blind reason,
From evil hearts come mad seasons.
Death by violence breeds karmic sway,
Pain reaps sentence in tragic play.
Sadly we see a world gone mad,
Now who can free comic gone bad?
Feel and see now mad games of hate,
We know not how violence marks date.
Justice cries here as horrors stream,
Evil times spear the decent dream.
In times like this, pray for kind grace,
Yield to a bliss that floods all space.
