Hate

Hate
                                  Can scar
                              Communities
                   Bringing fear and distrust
              Where none will listen to reason
            Until violence and bloodshed erupt
            With the murder of ordinary civilians.
              Such brutal butchery bastardises
                   Nations of innocent children.  
                     Only then sense returns
                          With great unease
                                  Trailing
                                   Peace..
