Solitude and seclusion.
Solitude and seclusion.
A Poem by Coyote Poetry
Easy to be blind then see the real world?
(Man is weak by his own hand, for he has refashioned God’s into his own.)
Kahlil Gibran
I’m swimming in shit and blood.
World falling to anger and hate.
Men crying out for war.
Dumb ass leaders in North Korean threaten to use Nuclear weapons.
50 nuclear war heads can destroy this world.
Do they think before they speak?
The leader’s in North Korea will sign death warrant for 25 million people.
Powerful nations need a excuse to test weapons.
14 nuclear submarines with a 1000 mile range are waiting.
A fool will test death. Death will win.
Poor nations torn apart by powerful nations.
Leaving them confused and abused.
Gifts of help by the berserkers is like the Devil dancing on your grave after
making you pay with losing all you held valuable.
The world had lost control.
Nuclear reactor in Japan dumped in the sea.
Oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico and the Dead sea.
Pollution.
One animal or plant extinct with each new day.
Sickness and starvation stealing life on every continent.
We are dancing on a edge where no-one will win.
War are won and lost.
The winner may celebrate.
The loser had no reason to celebrate.
Losers in war. The people of the country pay for the sin of foolish leaders.
Once great Middle East countries are tearing themselves apart.
Great cities are in rubble.
People homeless and desperate.
Who is winning? No-one!
We need a moment to halt the hate and misery. A moment to taste the pain and suffering.
I watch my world swim in shit and blood.
I can do nothing.
I live far away from war.
But I’m wise. I know war maybe far away. When war is alive and strong.
It is close to all people on this planet.
People tell me.
War is part of our nation.
War is necessary to fix all problems.
Need to revenge. This is a eye for a eye world.
I tell them. When war is in your backyard.
Your kids dying for your lack of concern.
You will understand.
Blood want and need more blood.
I sit in solitude and seclusion.
I burn the sage.
I whisper to the wildflowers and old trees.
Please bring sanity to my world.
I ask the pro-war folks.
Do you want your child to die for a rich nations to keep control?
My answer is silence..
Last week.
Terrorist killed three innocent people in Boston.
7,000 miles from the war.
War will find us.
Hate and violence lead men to foolish places and actions.
I put my feet into the cold river.
I ask the spirit of life and death.
Please bring sanity to my world.
In the end.
We are one people and one planet.
Thank you for reading.

Thank you for the kind words. Leaders who use threat of war and powerful weapons scare me. I wonder do they realize the children pay for our foolishness?

Albert Einstein wrote the truth. We need leaders with the ability to solve problems. Not create them. Thank you for the quote.

I don’t think we can entriely blame North Korea for being “dumb ass” with Nuclear Warheads. There are around 17,300 of them on the planet (according to the May 2nd, 2013 World Nuclear Stockpile Report) with Russia owning 8,500 of those, America, 7,700, and (as I’m English) England 225. We started this nonsense, effectively, you can’t be suprised Nort Korea, in all their lunacy, feel somewhat exposed and threatened!
Now being an atheist I don’t seen how the “god” debate even remotely weighs into any of this, either.

You don’t threaten a Nation with Bio, Chemical and Nuclear that can kill at will. North Korea want attention. If they shoot a weapon of any sort. USA would enjoy the opportunity to destroy. I want no-one to die. People need to calm down. North Korea need to use their brain. Not anger to get what they need and want. Anyone who threaten with a nuclear weapon is a dumb ass. Who would think a threat to kill a mass population is wise? I was a Soldier. I trained Soldier on nuclear weapons and protection. I know the figures on numbers and I know the types of weapons. I pray no dumb ass in this world uses a Nuclear weapon, Bio or chemical.

There has been a holy war going on for the last 5000 years. I believe its just God’s way of letting us know, “He is still in charge” and that Defense is so necessary for the combat against evil doers.

This is not a holy war. Rich nations provoking war and killing people. Children will revenge their father’s death. In the Past. Christians and Muslim lived in peace together in the Middle East. Jesus wanted forgiveness and love. Jesus said turn the other cheek and request another hit. War will not fix problems. These acts of terror are because. USA are in places they shouldn’t be. Old wise saying. Fix your home first before trying to fix another. A holy war is for religion. This is for land and oil. Poor God is not to blame.

That’s an assertion based on no evidence; you need a scientific citation to back something like that up as notions like that are incredibly easy to invent. I mean, watch; I believe that god, since the invention of the Pot Noodle, has been so angry with humankind that “he” has made everyone stock up on weapons of mass destruction.
And America owns 7,700 Nuclear Warheads (enough to destroy the world and everything on it), but the “evildoers” are North Korea for their political posturing? Currently we are more threatened by Psy’s latest single than their apparent machinations.

Will take 100 Nuclear Warheads to make our world a Mad Max world. Take little research to understand the damage that will be done if one weapon of destruction hit a large city. The Atomic bombs were the first step. Today we can erase a vast area with ease and from a distance. No-one should want a nuclear war. Bio and chemical is a live and well in our world. Chemical warfare is being used and look at Vietnam. Agent Orange was authorized usage by the President of the USA. Ain’t religion causing war. Internal struggle and greed allow men to kill without regret. The poor woman and children pay for our lack of concern. Should be a billion people crying out in disappointment when one child is killed anywhere. I hate war. I put dead Soldiers in body bags from old wars and I found dead bodies of woman of children because they believed in a different God. Time for peace. War is man great sin.
