Hell

(Picture Credit - We Know Your Dreams com)

Mad politicians threaten nuclear war

While madder religious maniacs

Send suicide bombers to kill and destroy.

Bombers brainwashed into believing

That vestal virgins await them in heaven.

Children starve

While adults fight

For bits of land.

A world divided.

Plagued by hate and distrust.

Governments killing their own people

Except when tied by nameless bureaucrats.

Forests and wildlife being cleared away

For the sake of gold or drugs

Or other means of making Money.

It’s a mad, mad world.

In which everyone is born to die.

What use is that?

Perhaps already we are living in

Hell.

Just Saying.
