War…

Hatred!  Repugnance.  And death…
It reinstates need.

The Surest Path To Peace

The path to your peace,
Is not to lay down your arms,
But hold them outstretched.

Abandon your wars,
Your sacred prejudices,
To live born again.

In another's arms,
Surrender yourself to love,
And peace will find you.

rests in the still gnarled hand
bruised petals weep tears

heralds another battle
