All We Can Abolish

Horrid hellion hunger that rips apart the soul
Sadly starving siblings where death takes its toll
Crippled children crying a mother lives in hell
While wicked ways of man making money for their sell

Vindictive violent victories, of man vs. man
Kabbalistic killing kids a death wish with a plan
Wrathful widespread Wars with blood over spilling
Betraying battling brothers kiss their cross before the killing

Repeated rancorous raping for only a woman knows
Destructive demeanour dancing the desecration of a rose
Sabotaging silent stealing virginity within the night
Demonic deception dwelling a battle we must fight

Let us pray now for all of this we can abolish
Breathe in strength and give the world its needed polish.

"... betraying battling brothers kiss their cross before the killing," The hypocrisy expressed in this line is startling, and powerful. I don't understand how one can keep two contradictory ideals as simultaneously true in their heads. Loved your title and your enlightening message, WW.
