What men do?

The leaders of this government must be held responsible.

What men do?

                      "  Mothers should negotiate between nations.
                        The mothers of fighting countries would agree.
                        Stop the killing.
                        Stop it now.

                                  Yoshikuni Taki "



Misguided and no conscious leaders.


Retaliate and on rampage of the ritual of war.


Manifest demons and hidden ghosts.

We the people.
Mirage and intoxicate by liar tales.


Investment in steel and gas.

More precious then the innocent in the way of the gun.

Deceitful men.

Smile when talk of torture like common part of war.


Men do shameful things.


No excuse for torture in war or peace.


The horrid of war should leave us weak.


Sacrifice of people and cities is acceptable?


Are we shackles and blinded?


We have Iranians, Iraq and Koreans people living in the USA.


Just men and woman trying to exist in the craziness.


Now internal problem in the world.


In Iran killing men and woman demonstrating.


Being killed for their view and wanting change.


No sanity anywhere.


We live in a world.


Where human shields are necessary in Palestine.


Africa need aid of food and medicine.


Interference and humanitarian are necessary.


Need to quit selling guns to rabid leaders.


Time to cry out.
Enought of the useless bloodshed.
Gather the leaders of this world.
Create a plan and do it.


Soldiers are killing for leaders.
Who are
Impotent and hostile toward peace.
Inflamed with hate.
Blinded with self goals.


What can we do?


Doing nothing is not the answer.
Being intrenched and malinger in a cave.


We may wake up one morning.
Your child will ask you.



What happen?


Call your Congressman and Senator.
E-mail the president.
Create friendship with other people in other countries.


What men do?


For deceitful and cold-hearted men.
Must stop.


Just and human leaders are needed.

Humble and sensible men are needed.

Pray for peace.

Pray for freedom.

Pray our children can have a fair chance.



Pray the Wars and hate can fade away to children
scary stories.

Exactly, the Iraqi people are just as much innocent as us, its the Government that is corrupt! But as long as opium or oil is obtainable, so what ey?! Its more than sickening love! Awesome writing sweet xx

[Ruth]

Well love, you probably know I am against the wars and the people who are so called Government and in charge of the people should be behind bars for war crimes! Trouble is war is their peace, we all need to be unshackled and realise that the divide created is not by us but by the powers that be that shape shift among us! I belive we are awakening in a sense, if we all stand aside from anger that is not our own and heal the divide, then their power, the people running the show, is taken away! Great work xxn

I believe we are shackled and blind. We have nothing really but our sight when we lose our way we lose everything. Well written.

[deeps]

This is such apowerful write here, such truths as well.

[Tina Kline]

Very powerful words and so very true. If only those in power believed them? Things must change and it will have to come from the people.

I like it. Kinda like solders are only given the right to kill, and even then they might not be sure. I like it nice job!

[charlotte talley]

this is a powerful poem and also very true. I like it. I do agree war needs to stop and love for one another needs to rise. there is to much blood shed and for what nothing . It is a song called war and what is it good for absolutley nothing. very powerful poem, I am going to keep it.

[De'Andre]

This is a powerful poem. As I read it, I felt as if I held it in my hands; the blood of the people who have tried and died spoke to me. The pain, the sorrow, the wanting, the needing, and the taking both in and of the lives of those who were once innocent were felt throughout all of this poem. It touched my heart and I am sure that it touched the hearts of all that lossed someone or something; perhaps even themselves in this chaotic world in which live. This was an excellent write my friend. Nicely done!

prayers, ideas, all worthless without action ~

these lines shine -

"Call your Congressman and Senator.
E-mail the president.
Create friendship with other people in other countries."

and research people, never accept what the media is trying to feed you

what is truly alarming is the growing number of "private" armies on our planet ..

the effects are felt close to home right now just south of the border ..
