What need of monsters?

What need of monsters when there are men,
and innocents are massacred 'til all innocence is gone?

What need we of devils dooming all to endless night, if when sleepless, endless bombs fall through the sky?

What need we demon spawn when babes be murdered in the womb, their mums entombed and cold in broken hospitals?

A room? Our tears could fill an ocean.

What need for pits of hell when flames abound and buildings crumble, and the air shreds the last life from desperate lungs?

Why then, the need for monsters
and to what end?

What need of monsters,
when there are men?

We must resist.

Oh my tears fall in rivers of desperation. For monsters walk amongst us everyday and I wish I could take them away. Oh, woe are we, this human race of which I’m one, take our souls to the laundry so they might be cleaned 😢

That is beautiful - and so sad.

Peace and harmony is what we need in the world, I pray for peace and harmony for every country in the world.
One love 💓

Yes.
One love.

Thank you

What of man’s intent makes a negative become a positive when shadows portray the dawn of darkened skies? Through the fog comes brighter rays of sunshine after a long downpour. Where there is love, there is also hope. I hope all can come to love one another as I would you as a dear friend. Thank you for sharing this with us. You have a beautiful mind many shall come to appreciate. My heart goes out to all the beautiful souls lost before their time. God bless them all.

Thank you.
Mine too.
...mine too.

Yes! I did not know what to do with the growing grief and helplessness so I also wrote a poem about this horror today. We need to reflect on why we are still so terrible, why the world creates so many roads to success for terrible people, enabling them to multiply their harm?

Thanks pregosauce I so agree
Can you link your poem here?

I am happy to do so, thanks for your interest!

Love the ending line. Men need monsters so they can pretend the real monster isn’t them

Thank you
I wish I didn't believe it was true.

It beats my heart to see human invest massively on weapons of Mass destruction instead of humanity. The world will know better peace when we start prioritizing humanity. Peace, peace & peace

We need peacefull world
