Infidel vs. Infantile…

Granted the followers of Allah feel justified,

Calling followers of a democratic nation infidels,

As for me, they, all seem to be just so much infantile…

The killing of human beings, or animals for that matter,

Is not something to die for, as it certainly does shatter,

The lives and loves of families & friends but mostly the latter,

They destroy with bombs; they kill like cowards,

They’re maybe worse than infantile children, destroying dreams before their time…

 These followers of Allah are of course the extreme end all of that belief,

So many others may have a belief that is similar, but do not do as these others, a relief,

 What do we do with these destroyers of lives, kill them in return, does that change anything?

Lock them in prisons, throw away the key, give us vengeance, making them see what they have become,

None of which is a viable answer to these crimes against humanity…

For hate is a vessel with a hole, holding only emptiness…

And vengeance, it is said, “is mine sayeth the Lord”… 

And again, hate is like drinking salt water, the thirst just gets worse…

We need to stop hatred & vengeance; it makes us weak,

It shows others how truly infantile we can be, do we want this, or are we ready for a new world?
