Callow kids spray lead to warn not infidel
For what glory of own faith’s idle pets
Would Hindus see in Paris kill Siva’s will

Villanelle: The Dilemma of the Non-Violent – 21

Would Hindus see in Paris kill Siva’s* will
Who’s show is this: Puppeteer or puppet’s
Kali-Yuga* dragging hind legs to standstill

Callow kids spray lead to warn not infidel
For what glory of own faith’s idle pets
Would Hindus see in Paris kill Siva’s will

What kills: finger on trigger or divine will
ISIS hand or lead Kalashnikov jets
Kali-Yuga dragging hind legs to standstill

Piecemeal World War III Papal wisdom mill
Did not racial hatred collide with tenets
Would Hindus see in Paris kill Siva’s will

Some people seek to dress world in their frill
Are Crusaders fratricidal Semites
Kali-Yuga dragging hind legs to standstill

Andromeda clash through Milky Way spill
Lest ISIS pound Kali-Yuga with jets
Would Hindus see in Paris kill Siva’s will
Kali-Yuga dragging hind legs to standstill

[Notes: •Siva: Hindu Trinity of the Godhead BRAHMAN
composed of Brahma (Creator),
Vishnu (Preserver)
And Siva (Destroyer)
•*Kali-Yuga: According to Hindus, the “Iron Age” (the last phase of human existence), having commenced with the Mahabharatha (the Great War on February 18, 3102 B.C.E.)
will come to an end in less than 430000 years. – time enough to shoot the Milky Way to pulp.]

Reviewed by Ronald Hull
Reviewed on May 28, 2022
While written in 2015 the phrase, "Callow kids spray lead…" is about as predictive as it gets given what's happened recently here in the United States lately. And, if Star Wars and other soap opera dramas of a dystopian future are played out with all that slam bam, thank you ma'am destruction of planets for the hell of it, the Milky Way may be in danger of humans and our intelligent machines rather than the normal forces like Andromeda eating the Milky Way in a few billion years.
