Terrorism

What is the world teaching our young?
Now a new day on Earth has begun,
There's terrorism as a new tourism,
using as a mask, any form of schism,
We all accept this as a norm,
It's time for attitudes to reform,
Terrorists are made, not born,
We are educating our young in new wrongs,
But to one human race we all belong,
How to pass this baton on?
This question we should ask,
To find solutions is our task,
Old peaceniks sit and wonder,
While our broken youth shall ponder,
They're using as a mask, any schism,
Why is terrorism a new tourism?
