When Love Hates Poem by Deluke Muwanigwa

When love hates

A strange creature
A debilitating feature
That of deception
At inception
Bringing false promises of goodwill
To hoodwink
Lulling
Then culling
Killing
Without feeling.
When love hates

With bibles and guns
Many moons and suns
Benighting heathens
Their motive hidden
In double speak
Converting the weak
Those who question
Shown no patience
A bullet
A knife in the gullet
Lynched

Encountering natives
Different narratives
The final solution
Racial dissolution
Nature's will
No big deal
Assimilation
Complete humiliation
Nuking
Without puking
Of indigenes

When love hates
Destruction of states
In the name of democracy
Destroying theocracy
Chaos
In Laos
Communism
Versus capitalism
Domination
And indoctrination
For profit

A strange creature
Debilitating feature
Deception
At inception
Iniquity
Futility
Causing genocide
Worldwide
Death
On earth
When love hates
