I don't understand
As an empath
When the world
Seems to demand wars
(To settle old scores?)
Rebellions, and riots
Fighting for peace
White flags
Are seen as a weakness
Or cowardice
Putting flowers
Down the barrel of a gun
Not much fun
when they shoot you
The politicians
Of all persuations
Stir up the rage
And frustrations
The media, are no better
Adding cherry-picked toxins
To their headline letter
Fuelling the poisonous soup
From which we all sip
Religions rarely get a grip
I'm more fearful, and concerned
Of this pandemic of hate
Than of any viruses
Abuse, racism, Lgbtq+ phobia
******, mayhem, and ******
Ironic
That Mars is referred to
As the planet of war...
