Worlds'
greatest minds taken!
For
religion?
For
prejudice?
For
lies told by bullies?
Power
hungry
control
freaks!
most
of us
throughout
the world
can
fly together, share the
same
space, the same air,
lives.
What
is wrong with you?
An
entire
world
of toleration and reason
are
not wrong?
Tunneling
like rats,
in
the dark,
looking
beyond guilty.
Going
to sway minds,
I
doubt it
obvious
you are,
tornadoes
of
sharks.
Logic
is taught,
not
hate.
Planes
downed,
full
of
world
wide citizens,
another
mass
distraction to make war profits.
We
are aware.
Knowing.
You
also
are
obvious.
There
is
no
winning
a
PR war
we
see.
All
can see.
The
masks
of
deceit,
the
covered
blood.
Stolen
bodies,
living women,
living girls,
broken
hearts,
of
widows,
widowers,
sons,
and daughters.
Mothers' Fathers'.
Your prices
too
high.
More
than
world
sees you.
Designing
weak
minds
in
their
time
of
mass
distress.
Watching
murderous hearts.
And Ebola.....
And Ebola.....

Strong minds exist on their own but weak minds need character shaping,especially when distressed! Nicely Still!

Sometimes it does seem that toleration and reason are nowhere to be found...there is sadness in the things we are aware of, and undoubtedly more in the things we are not aware of. A powerful poem.
yep, bullies without someone to stand up to them.
ha. you even worked in Sharknado....smiles...an interesting cascade in your words....i would disagree, i think hate is taught in many ways...much more than wisdom...and if we want unity, we have to start acting like it--but all too many are too selfish
The cynicism of the war industry is chilling - they know how to do it.
"Watching / murderous hearts." ha..it's almost like daily chores...
I like the title in particular..intriguing!
A bit of discussion; To Brian: I do agree with the premise that hate is a taught manifestation usually. I find us in agreement with 'Power hungry...control freaks' and 'Designing minds...etc.' It is like mind bending to me. The most literal sense of the word. Sad isn't it Sumana Roy 'our daily dose of media poison'.
very strong poem..you are honest in your words..
Groovy form. Love- " Tunneling like rats,
in the dark,
looking beyond guilty."
This is dark and I agree with much of it. I don't have all the proof that I would like to prove that the power-hungry perpetuate war but it certainly seems that way to me.
I really like this:
"Tunneling like rats,
in the dark,
looking beyond guilty.
Going to sway minds,
I doubt it"

Today in Canada, a radicalized and misguided man acted out the nightmare you write of here........at great cost. Our nation is reeling. The insanity is on our doorstep.
Love your title. I wish I could still be cynically optimistic! Good write.
