To End All Terrorism

Terrorism is the use of violence and intimidation for political aims
Why is it then that the lives of 100 thousand plus innocent people
Including thousands of orphaned 2 year old's been claimed
Why does each attack feel like a more devastating and intense sequel
Bombs and missiles flying over distressed homes,
Never knowing when one would die, therefore living in constant fear and anxiety
Kids praying so they don't end up in skull and bones
These tragedies occurring almost too often in modern society
Reasons? Are there any to forgive these inhumane acts
These selfless, gutless acts of manslaughter
Truth is, hate is the sole cause of these attacks
Kids being manipulated since birth thanks to their extremist fathers
And the solution to this self-inflicted man-made disaster is education
Not legal action, warfare or any other forms of violence
Let’s take youths away from this path of devastation
Get rid of their ignorance and ease their minds with silence
Let’s get one step closer to ending this never-ending cycle of terrorism
By focusing on our vision to close the gaps of extremism

Love how you incorporated statistics in the poem to improve it's impact.
The irony of this line is surreal- "Why does each attack feel like a more devastating and intense sequel"Â
Exactly. That was the point. I wanted to keep the poems entertaining and make sure they captivate the reader but at the same time, include statistics and facts to keep it entertaining. Thanks for catching on.
