I READ THE NEWS TODAY






I read the news today the headlines said, " arming is the best way " 
if only Presidents and Governments would realize, " its not the way"
Tight fisted words and nuclear explosions erode humanity's soul  
we don't want to live in a world of war savants we got heart & soul,  
I read the news today they got it wrong, "arming is not the way"
