How Far Is It ?
The menacing clouds of war
Often pounce to create havoc,
The pigeons of peace
Scared and scattered, fly away.
The storm of hatred
The storm of enmity
The storm of death
The storm of destruction,
These devastating forces
Design the ugly face of war.
Men or women
Children or youth
Aged or the sick
Rich or the poor;
The ferocious WAR
Without care and concern
Without pity or parity
Extends its biased hand
Against the co-humans.
Ignoring the path of truce
The will and wish
Of the super powers
Ultimately would prevail.
It is the co-human
Who bears the brunt?
It is an act inhuman
That should be denounced.
On whom ?
Should the blame be put?
On whom ?
Should the outcome be focused?
How far is it justified?
To instill fear among citizens
To enforce self-declared laws
To massacre the innocents
To rain bombs on civilians
To create mass destruction
To treat civilians as criminals
To aggressively destabilize nations?
