The invisible threat

Who as innocents, can we trust anymore.

As war and mass murder, come knocking loudly at our door.

It doesn't come from a single race, colour or creed.

It stems from religion,money, politics and greed,

An innocent life,is an innocent life.

A person's, a person a husband a child a mother or somebody's wife

I now dread the future and what it may entail.

As peace talks to date, have been an epic fail.

From Omar to raqqa, from Iran to Pakistan.

From Manchester to Lockerbie,from Sydney to Sudan,

Our enemies are everywhere,we really have no clue.

Socially awkward teens,shooting their classmates,to name but a few.

Alot of the perpetrators, so young and naive.

Just wanting to belong and feel important, following a cause that they believe.

I wonder if a martyr, is what a suicide bomber is to become?

A martyr?a hero?a villain? Or brainwashed, naive young and dumb.

I often wonder why we seldom hear,

Of a suicide bomber,above their 40th year!

If wisdom comes with age, and if martyrdom's a great life choice, and becoming all the rage.

Then why brainwash, a young adult, to do your dirty deed.

To undertake your task, and spread your evil seed.

It's not just you that spreads fear and hate.

Think of Hitler and muggabi, the words genocide and dictate

innocent life's taken,for a reason we may never understand.

All the thousands of innocent peoples blood, shed all across our land.

Serial killers, mass murderers, warlords and dictators.

Racists, homophobes, facists and haters.

We innocents are resilient, brave, wise and strong,

We ask u united, please stop doing us wrong.

There is no justification, in your evil crimes.

So let us live in peace, and try and look to happier times.
