Notes About The Poem

written in unrhymed tercets to symbolise the trinity of how i see this corrupt cruel world today lost without a moral compass 

Called History Repeating Itself

Balanced through life's cup 
our climate changes as war grips many poor souls 
Caught victims in a maze poisoned by this pollution 

Trillions dropped in bombs of grave suffering and devastation 
the silent screams for justice that's never heard 
Media no longer covers true facts bare to the bone 

Holocaust where arms are supplied by powers at large 
testimony witnesses living skeletons displayed 
That would break your heart seeing such unbearable agony 

Driven from their home lands by greedy tyrants 
the greatest polluters of this world 
Warmongers destroying cities and valuable relics 

Amounts to the army of darkness never once showing 
the olive branch of peace destroying seems to be all they live by 
a sad story that is told over and over again
