WAR and EVOLUTION

Tying stone in a shaft to crack a nut there must have been cheer 
Now,hitting by projectile thousands mile apart in ambience of fear 
Imagine the warmth in skin when they sewed two pieces together 
Now we grief over burnt skin through grinades and trigger pulled over 
There must have been alliance among beings when they first articulated words 
Heart bleeds when disparity in language is causing people to pull swords
How happy they must be when seeds sprouted in organized farming 
Mother earth struggling to feed her childrens situation is alarming.
The despair among mothers waving farewell when there was pernicious plague 
As if diseases are not enough to annihilate there are piles of uranium on sell.

War hasn't changed since the first stoning. The names have changed, the weapons keep getting bigger and better, but we'll never learn from our past mistakes. No, we'll continue to destroy each other with God on our lips!
