Last nights horror in Paris prompted me to write this
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It cannot be happening again
No man should cause his fellow this pain
Does no one learn from what has gone before
Each not caring for the other, in the name of a god making war.
“Soldiers” they call themselves dressed in bomb concealing clothes
Carrying machine guns to shoot innocents they do not know.
Ruining the ordinary and the sane and all in a prophets name.
In a second the night was blown apart
Bombs and bullets opening up rivers of blood at Paris’s heart
Allah would not really want all those lives torn apart
But man has taken his words and used them for his gain
Lost the meaning in translation time and time again.
Evil it seems is on the rise with war and hate its goal and prize.

Beautifully done, Willow!
Why is it most everyone I know, feels the same? That there is nothing stating to kill our fellow man in any of the religious writings, yet man chooses to interpret them that way. How so few can create such hatred…

I just don’t know, but sadly it has been that way since time immemorial!

Sad truth.

You are so correct! No religious teachings ask for violence that I know of! They all say peace, forgiveness and love! So sad! lovely post Willow!

Well done, Willow. This really conveys the horror of what is happening far too often.

Yes there is something like this happening in places in the middle East and Africa more often than we will ever know. What sort of species are we humans?
Nov 15, 2015 @ 18:42:16
Sometimes I wonder.

OH! me too! xxxx

Impressive how you used a simple form to rein in the horror that the world has experienced.

Thanks Deborah, would that the answer to the problem was so simple! ❤

The answers are never that simple. Too many people are like dogs with bones. They think they have a cause, and right or wrong, no one can pull them from it. When the cause is good, that’s a very positive thing, but when the cause is evil, it only causes terror and horror, as we’ve seen this week.

Yes you are so right ….maybe that is where the saying the dogs of war comes from.
Nov 16, 2015 @ 20:02:00
You have so perfectly expressed the indescribable horror in your poem. Thank you, Willow. ❤

I am so sad that this has happened ! ❤
