Killings ,maimings ,bullets and bombs

Killings ,maimings , bullets and bombs
In an age of computors ,disc's and of roms
In the name of religion, and politics to
Where the innocents die, for the ideals of the few

Why is it we ask, is the killing a need
To make us believe in their cause or their greed
Why can't they just talk in heated debate
Then causing such misery, with their pain and their hate

They can only impose through sheer force what they will
With their acts of atrocity, and their methods to kill
Blind to the tears, and the the sadness they cause
With their flagrant abuse of gods nature and laws

In the name of humanity, when will it all end
When they've taken away mans right to defend
The things he believes in, through force or by fear
In the name of religion,without even a tear.

Excellent take on todays scenario,Pen
The unjust wars are fought right and left
The justification is right at hand
The lives that pay for it innocent
Who cares...
As long as they take what they think is there's...
Close, very close to my heart!!!
