Another wasteland.

Another wasteland.

A Poem by Bryan Sefton
"

War. When anger conquers reason. When anger conquers reason.

"
Cold cold heart! What have you done?
you had them at your mercy and gave them none.
Are you follower or followed?
This world for which you fight?
A cold dark place
A place of blight!
Keep it away from mine!

Cold cold men, all feelings stilled
Do you know what it is you killed?
You point the gun with no remorse
Cutting the candles flame at source
Cold heart. Cold blood.
Man! What have they made of you?

Cold cold eyes, look at this child.
Pathetic body, corrupt, defiled.
Place it in the earth. Leave it where it lies.
Are you father or fighter?
Replenish your bullets.
Fire them back
The revenge,
For the revenge,
On the revenge attack.

Heartfelt and understood. What is currently going on and being reported is shocking. How can they, how can they I ask? But they do and there is no end to the savagery and depths that some will plunge to. The innocents suffer, how they suffer and it is incredibly painful to see.
