The Dark Obsession- For Contest

The Dark Obsession - for contest



Horrendous thunderstorm of explosions
Dark clouds of the noxious obsessions....,
that we have more weapons; we fight for a cause
Malefic causes so senseless and baseless...
But paradox is, it appears noble for the offenders
Large-scale indoctrination of the young minds
for  violence and ruthless destruction
Obsession of supremacy so dreadfully corrosive
Mad spree to hoard guns and WMDs,
Innocents or criminals, men or animals,
shudder with fear all that has life!
Collossal apocalypse of terror-waves ...
Atrocious erosion of moral and social fabric
Grotesque grimace at the principle of 
universal brotherhood that underlies all our
holy scriptures!
Oppressed n' suppressed are the weak n' unequipped
Belligerent, pugnacious mindset mobilisation to bring
vitriolic ripping n' decaying of global peace
Peaceful waters turned filthy black with terror,
boils in the furnace to give to the globe a 
shower of  hot flowing blood!
Amicable contemplation to assassin this obsession
would bring no wars, no terrorism but peace!
Sustainable peace assured for the eternity!

Dear Richard, thank you for visiting my poem and i agree with you in totality that this is just a dark poem and darkest things are much more there...one fish is always bigger than the other fish! let your pen flow on the dark issues...as they require much light to be thrown as they are issues of great concern!......love anf hugs, Anu:-)

A dark obsession, indeed, Anulaxmi!! The world has become a stage for tragic drama, where the actors are victims of their own doing. It does not have to be like this...we must not lose hope of making a better world! #7 // paul
