War And Hate Poem by Jeanne Fiedler

War And Hate

Rating: 5.0


</>Ambivalence is creaking in
my attic,
Noone is saying no to wrong
Everyone looks one way, than
over their shoulder...
When they look you in the eye,
it better be for love
but when they turn around
all it ever is - is hate...

Steaming...vaporizining
in the atmosphere
The gritty streets
painfully pick up their
scent as they trample down
them indifferently
and
the war goes on...
The soldiers march in
The soldiers march out
Where is the voice of
reason?
What's happening to
humanity?
Live, laugh, love
we used to say
'love your brothers and
sisters'

It's rudely complex today
I wish it would take us
over the mountain
and right back up
so we know the grass
is always greener on
the other side

Acceptance is letting
it go,
compliance, cooperation,
help people, let it be,
Let us love again...

The accidents of fate
black us out
we're tormented in
this stressful world
Let love be unconditional
Let love/hate disintegrate
Let fear be wiped out
Look it in the face because
it escalates into grave tension
which causes us
to fumble, fall and fail...
Fear no more...

Let us have peace...
