Down With The Warlords! Poem by s.zaynab kamoonpury

Down With The Warlords!

Rating: 4.3


Wars round the corner, wars at every bend
Could it be that all this warring would never ever end?
Why can't we borrow love and peace too learn to lend?
For peaceloving persons wars are hard to comprehend
But in which blessed century will the world it's ways amend?
Why not be all sincere when peace we readily send?
To our lives defend why do we opt to offend?
Why can't we all as Adam's progeny simply unite and blend?
The world's tearing apart, which saviour's gonna mend?
When the scissors of tyranny all peace efforts ruthlessly rend!
When will all the saviours from heavenly heaven descend?
So we watch and hear all war cries unto thin air ascend!
When peace be the only choice, the only probable trend!
Ah instead of fending off war drums why peace plans off we fend?
Why peace so complicated and double standards at every bend?
Will all state treasuries on aggression alone their budgets spend?
Why can't every foe we know turn into a caring friend?
So we're stalked by friendship
and ambushed by love godsend!
A world where warlords and war heroes become zeroes
who in the first place did offend.
With peace may no nation merely play and pretend!

Like you, I want to see peace in the whole world, which is not yet the case. It is hard to see the logic behind wars and the reason for 'war heroes'.

An insightful portrayal of the menace of wars and warlords - Ugly men fuelled by putrid sludge of iniquity, whose sole intent is to raid national treasuries. A clarion call reminding humanity of the need for universal brotherhood. Thanks for sharing.
