Passionate Pacifist Plea
Should hearts obey man or God?
This is so dirt simple —
Two sheaf ears in a pacifist pod
Fear thee anthem thunder
more than the
firmament lightning rod?
There’s no question
which one
gets the soul loyalty nod
Doesn’t dove eyes
starry follow the Celestial sky will?
Compassionate commandment
engraved in stone:
A holy decree, “Thou shall not kill”
This passionate pacifist plea
deserves an universal bleat
War paint ain’t peace palette proper
Napalm hope being
dropped from a camouflage chopper
Silo echo prayers,
whisper incensed Arrows
are wavy boasting
Cemetery sepulchre rows
ere manicured revelry neat
Olive branch naysayers
extend digital particles fungi
Angry flow bloodstream
trigger the plutonium release
Obey a loving God, not hateful man,
ought not we?
Bullet dodge thermal extinction plan
is this scarlet ink sob,
pacifist plea
