See armageddon–
Hiding behind bombs and guns,
Deadly viruses,
Indiscriminate killing,
Murder and mayhem abound!
Worst of man exposed;
What goes around comes around
As the saying goes.
Perhaps we’ve come full circle
To pay for indiscretions.
No nation is safe.
Technology has assured
We are one world.
Hide amongst your ignorance,
But know–it cannot protect.
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
I pray for restraint.
I pray that pride will not turn us blind,
This can only result in death.
Drawing all sides to the brink
On what road will there be peace?
.
Yes, perhaps lines have been crossed,
But lines can be distorted by wind,
Blurred by anger, smothered with oil,
Causing harried decisions…
This is the time for wisdom not greed.
.
Let not egotism ignite Armageddon,
The stakes are far too great.
Have we learned nothing from our past,
Nothing from our present,
Nothing from the farewells to our sons and daughters?
.
Tell us almighty, what is victory!
Show us what victory looks like,
We have not seen one in so long!
You ask again for our trust
Yet your truths ring as hollow as ever.
