go to hell

Go to Hell What is wrong with the world today Armies at war but mostly innocent pay Israel, Palestine, Russia, Ukraine Catastrophic destruction, immeasurable pain Leaders of nations speak lots of empty words Talking of consequence, like sheep, how absurd Action is called for by those on the outside But It will take more than words to turn this tide Solutions are not easy But you need somewhere to start How about stop the killing That would give hope To those who’ve lost heart If there is a heaven And if there’s a hell May those responsible Go to the latter, and eternally dwell

Your title grabbed my attention, and your poem laid it out emphatically. People should read your poem. I think once the powers that shouldn't be squeeze out the U.S. dollar's last penny of value, then things will change. But it will probably get worse first. War keeps the ponzi going, unfortunately.

Been this way ever since Cain killed his brother. Only the Prince of Peace can bring peace. I believe that time is near
