Jeff W. Watson Poet Haiku

What's the Solution

Some Americans
Don't want retaliation
Call them Peace-sayers...

Others want blood now
Bomb them back to the stone age
Call them War-mongers...

And some are just scared
They want to be safe from harm
Call them what you will...

All our reactions
Are endless and as many
As we are diverse

What's the solution?
How can we end the evil?
And stop the killing?

If we do nothing
They will attack us again
Many more will die...

If we do something
They could attack us again
But not easily...

We have to stop them
They will NOT just go away
Or negotiate

They hate us because
We have what they do not have
Peace, freedom, justice

It's our heritage
But we became complacent
Took things for granted...

That terrible day
Evil stabbed us in the heart
And opened our eyes

We were awaken
From our utopian dreams
To reality...
