What happens to Lebanon these days does make any flesh and blood grieve. Thip poem is dedicated to that country and its people .

GOD HELP YOU.


8) EARTH IS NO MORE SECURE

To where shall we move?
If Earth is no more secure
And humans become such beasts
With their cruelty kill the peace.
Why should weapons talk
Instead of words?
Breaking homes and oaths .
Mothers do always pray their families survive under the threat.
Tragically, kids constantly pay
For the crimes of humanity, so unfair.

Death is approaching ,you can bet.
As the heartbeat pauses at the sight of bodies
Submerged in the sea of bloods.
Can any medicine heal at this point?
Or at least numb the pain one feels as losing everything
Including House, land, parents and smiles
Could share before the strike.
Until when tears and bloods shed?
Until when injustice takes what one does possess
And force owns with destruction the dreams and dears.
Who has the guts?
No, who has a brave voice
To put an end to the woes and wounds
Humans have savagely built.

oh Amanda, what a poignant poem you haven written. Your questions are so valid. Throughout all time man has been fighting man from the beginning. When Caim slew Able, hatred flowed like blood from a severed vein and it flows still. Only love can save this world. Only love. kathy

rasheed
earth is no more express the concern of poet to the earth as well as the humanity.
The philathrophist inside the poet tell us the cruelty of war and the pain of its victims. the poet responds to the social issues and interupt it as part of the victims.
Best regards
