Global-warWhat is this space we say we need
and violently refuse to cede
Our bodies willingly we’ll bleed
if our words they fail to heed

Seeking love with heart sincere
a bloodied child sheds a tear
Our cause is just, the course won’t veer
such hypocrites, we have no peer

From global wars to marriage spats
righteousness wears white hats
And just like hissing alley cats
soon throws itself upon the rats

They say we live an age of reason
apparently there has been treason
But let us wait another season
before removing ego’s lesion

Religious leaders take such pride
in claiming God is on their side
As human passions they seek to hide
in fear the flock finds they lied

If all is fair in love and war
then our poor world will heal no sore
And children raised on local lore
will also rot at the core
