What More Important Than Humanity

What more important than humanity

A bomb is dropped, missiles fired;

Terror knocks at your door and brings pain.

Ruthless killers, assassins hired,

Friends, foe, family – indiscriminately they are slain.

Abandoned and homeless souls in sight,

People informed do flee.

But what more important than humanity for which they fight;

‘cause of which rivers of blood and corpses we see

Each moment, as it passes by;

Brave soldiers and men risking their lives,

But on the battlefield lifeless they lie;

Mourning for them their children and wives.

War is frenzy at its height.

All like a nightmare – tense and extreme;

But what more important than humanity for which they fight;

For more like subversives chaos it does seem.

Squads of soldiers slaughtering their adversaries,

All for the power of supremacy;

Far and wide an abates of trees,

All to protect unguaranteed ascendancy.

Not regretting even in hindsight,

Emptying emotions of harmony and trust;

But what more important than humanity for which they fight,

And practice war so utterly unjust?

Civilian lives put at risk

Consequences are deathly,

Downright demands for fisc;

Traitors being created stealthily.

It’s like a succubus every night,

Haunting you; trying to kill you,

But what more important than humanity for which they fight;

And leave the world with peacekeepers a few.

Billions of lives lost,

Is it really worth all the pain?

Innocent lives should not pay the cost;

For then, there is nothing to gain.

War is everyone’s plight,

For change, adopt non-violent ways

‘cause what more important than humanity for which they fight;
