Darfur, Sudan

Darfur, Sudan Yet again, there is a great deal of madness As the entire world is filled with sadness And men raise arms against each other They fight as if they have no mother Two hundred, thousand dead and the world stand still in silence As Darfur is overwhelmed with blood and violence Someone should take a stand These people need a helping hand The warring factions are seriously misled They move around in circles as if energized by horror and more bloodshed To kill and drink the blood of hate As they hope to gain a better fate The United Nations seem to have no power But it is time to act within this hour So that all nations great and small Should answer to this most serious call If people could see the future of this time And is able to read each other's mind Then the planet could see it's greatest calm Or the Earth rebels and do us harm William Morrissey 1/29/07
