A Hidden Note For The Fearful Poem by RIC BASTASA

A Hidden Note For The Fearful



what he is saying
could be this that in searching
peace
one has to offer as many lives
as possible

he lost his father

but the people are impatient
he lost his temper

he may wage war against his own
people
to obtain this peace
from the murderers
he may even disregard the sufferings
of the widows and children
and he will do this
in the name of peace

he wants to grab this chance
of a lifetime
to hold on to peace

everyday however the killings
and kidnappings and ambushes
continue

he still wants peace
he still wants to grab the tail of peace
for once in his lifetime

the people looks at him with dismay
and he has become
their own enemy
