RAGE

Keep the innocents in the village
Don't let the children play outside
The homeless and the nameless
Must stay huddled together
Finding shelter where they can

Because there are killers high above
Dropping bombs of hatred and rhetoric
Killing and maiming indiscriminately
And the killers are from so many places
Leaders from all over the world
Whose only morality is ambition
And their only emotion is paranoia

And those who dare to disagree
Are shut up or closed down
Never to be heard from again
And those who care to notice
Are watching open-mouthed
The bloodied stump of history
Right before their eyes

great and have importance int he current situation.

we can here about wars and bombing everywhere now. No place in the world is safe now. peace is a dream only and we never see it .

Because there are killers high above
Dropping bombs of hatred and rhetoric
Killing and maiming indiscriminately
And the killers are from so many places
Leaders from all over the world
Whose only mortality is ambition
And their only emotion is paranoia

this is what the leaders do as they try to be a good king with wars and killings , not by creating peace.

i appreciate your valuable thoughts.

thanks for wrote this .
