Twelve out of sixteen killed were defenseless <br />Nine were children, three were women <br />To kill them while sleeping, it makes no sense <br />But this tragedy is a really bad omen. <br /> <br />A Pandora's box of seething hate now opened <br />Damage control cannot cool down the rage <br />The gap has now irrevocably widened <br />The Dragon of terror is let out of the cage. <br /> <br />As pointless as the sands that grace the place <br />Flown by angry winds of lost directions <br />Such is the war whose cause we cannot trace <br />It is wiser to leave, lest Death take the options.<br /><br />Cynthia BuhainBaello<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/pointless-war-senseless-deaths/
