QUATRAINS:Them Who Sicken The World.
QUATRAINS: Them Who Sicken The World.
But Tolstoy wrote in a day and age
When privacy still held the edge.
Today we walk in a park and find
The ‘Bush’ behind a hedge.
One man presents the other cheek
And an empire moves.
Another kills to prove his God
And thus his God disproves.
He struck a fire in a million hearts
They killed a million Jews.
He took his life and now another
Another million woos.
They spend their lives collecting land
WINNING! At any cost.
Then search within them for a soul
And weep for a kingdom lost.
“They must not live!” declared fuehrer
“That drag on humankind!”
A classic case of ‘good for man’,
Divinity, sidelined.
Do not get angry, get even!
Go settle all your scores!
It will not harm you, and at the most,
It’ll cause a few more wars.
