Never War

This conflagration has no place in the history books It is a senseless and brutal attack on common sense A disastrous vandalization of the human spirit A poisonous sting into the heart of humanity This war is an abomination in the eyes of God A dark manuscript of wickedness and selfishness This war is turmoil, despair and sorrow This war is unforgivable, unwanted and horrible It is a scavenger attack on innocent women and children A brutal rape of the human ethos This war is tasteless, sour, bitter and vile in all its flavors It is a disgusting display of evil A crime against humanity This war shatters the podium of common sense Rupturing the membranous garment of the mind This war is a cancerous destruction of the human heart A malignant tumour inside humanity's consciousness This war is not part of human progress It is a shallow grave for our collective conscience A dark blot in the book of reason This war is pure madness ©Kenneth Maswabi
