Violence Unkind

When besieged by
shooting, the word kills word.
Meaningless show.

The day will unfold 
bringing blood on street.
I will pray for night.

Sectarian push 
decimates the forest
of daisies.

So. Very. True. What a pity that humanity's greatest power & ability is hypocrisy, rather than choice. Well presented here.
