“Carnivores of War”



More bullets being released.
Feeding the political beasts.
Blood staining the ground.
Hopes of peace falling down.
Itchy fingers covering triggers
Our society is becoming bitter.
Not looking at internal good;
Judging souls beneath hoods. 
Streets once filled with laughter.
Now where death is splattered.
Everyone trying to remain quiet;
As a few voices call for the riot. 
Fires of anger burning in chests.
The donning of bulletproof vests.
A nation slowly begins to divide.
The only guide is stubborn pride.
What will end this damn insanity;
And will it restore our humanity?
Darwin is now the law of the land
As we keep killing our fellow man.
Slowly devolving into carnivores.
Longing for the call of a civil war.
When will this total madness end?
Wish I knew that answer, my friend.
