Words

on any day there’s
somewhere war
division at it’s very worst

gunpowder’s the ace of choice
in its multiple forms
and calibers

used by single lone deranged
raged into groups
whole nations

united in separating
human bodies perforated
bleeding losing parts blown asunder
arms legs toes and heads

if only words could have
the power of gunpowder.

Those words should resonate in the ears of all leaders and terrorists in the Arab world. Only when these words pierce the hardened hearts of these world leaders that are bent on world domination, will peace be known to man. China is my biggest worry along with rogue nations that have nuclear weapons or will develop them soon.
