Say No to War!

Once in a century there comes a notable war, To prove how uncivilized human beings are! One steps up, reaching for the star, The other steps down, Leaving a never-vanishing scar. O ruled people! Say no to war, It has always favored the rulers so far. “We are the saviors of the world,” they say, Yet the shepherdless flock is left as prey. What will justify the war? What can replace the genocide of the little flower? “Holy war,” they command, What holiness do you see in the blood-soaked hand? Left and right, they divide the world, Yet both belong to the same word. Having messed up this blue marble as much as we can, Now praying for another one to mess it up again.
