Are we crazy the people of this world?

I worry for the children. What will be left?

Are we crazy the people of this world?
 

I pray a prayer to the spirit of life and death.
Please sent wisdom to the leaders of this world.

We bludgeon our planet.

Who will pay the price for our greed?

Our water is being choke to death by oil spills.
The sea life will die without a cry or outrage by no-one.




    (Oil fires in Iraq)




War is killing people daily.
Killing for religion and oil.
A eye for a eye.
No-one will win.
We will just all be dead.
                  (Death valley, Iraq)

Soldiers are dying for oil and rich men.
I pray these b******s making money off war.
Pay their debt in hell forever.


The world can be beautiful.
We must stop the hatred.
Men of peace must come to the front.
The leaders need to talk of peace.



(My friend Don with his children and my daughter. He was  killed in Iraq in August 2004.)

If we keep going in the direction of hate and War.
What will we leave for the children of this world?


We must get angry and demand the wars to stop everywhere.
We must protect the water and earth.


If we stand bye and do nothing.
We are as guilty as the leaders who want more blood.

Author's Note

We are living in bad times. The world need to be re-directed from war and hate. We are one people. If this world falls apart. We shall die together.

... brilliantly written and brilliantly presented ... these are relevant and rampant issues ... aggravated by ulterior motives ... the first step is to talk about it fearlessly and you've done that remarkably ... thank you for writing this and sharing this ... (highest rating) ...

Praying that these men will be punished in Hell forever only adds to the hatred...Stop the cause, don't hate the symptom.

Ohhhhh how I agree with you, a million times and more.

We wonder about aliens, creatures on other planets but please God they behave better than Mankind.

We steal from the earth instead of protecting it, we kill and maim as if we were playing cowbys and indians - nothing more than a game, we look to money as if it was the holy grail and crave it near more than air itself.

Your post has me steamed up cos I'm with you. Your post is magnificent, your pics absolutely right for the theme of your writing. You never fail to move me with your words.

Brilliant in its sadness, more .. its tragedy.

[Ryan Falzon - Tymon]

This is quite a sad truth. Greed(for oil) and not being able to respect other people's opinions will cause war. Your last two lines are truly touching and present guilt in the reader. Wonderfully written. And may your friend Don Rest in peace.

[Daniel Gardner]

Well said. No one takes the time anymore to think of what they're doing to the environment, to the economy, or even to our own humanity. Nice work.

[Helen Woodward]

BTW...so sad to see your friend Don and his children...My sincere condolences :-(

[Helen Woodward]

WOW!!! This is amazing!! You have presented your work with professional flair and made your point extremely well. Gosh we do live in a mad world and the trouble with the so called 'peacemakers' is that all they do is talk!! Don't get me started on the state of the poverty stricken masses, just thinking about it makes my skin crawl.
Thank you for bringing awareness with this timely post :-)))
Cheers,
Helen~

Sir... Your words are completely truthful. I'm glad we have people like you.

[Undying Glory]

absolutely powerful and everything's just so true. awesome

[JENY]

Very true…..
I wish…there were a handful of people..
Who can think like you…
Then world will be a peaceful haven for its inmates…

[Antonio Valentino]

Sadly, the more we, advance, in so may ways as a race, the more destructive, and uncaring we become. Keep up the good word my friend. Nothing will ever change if we simply sit idle by. Your a good man Coyote, we're all the better for knowing you. So sorry about your dear friend. Life can be such a shame sometimes.

Blessings,
Antonio
