Another sacred cow has just gone mad <br />Another failed fanatic waits in line <br />Another mother guards the tears she had <br />Another river bleeds in triple time <br /> <br />So long as the naïve are taught by fear <br />Traditions which turn fiction into fact <br />How long before humanity appears <br />To show, God and the Devil have a pact <br /> <br />A pact that only splits us, and divides <br />Gives cause to kill, for glory be to….what? <br />If dogmas sway, like fashions on man’s tides <br />While each believe, they’re something they are not. <br /> <br />Perhaps the gods of war will one day tire <br />When every bullet’s programmed to backfire?<br /><br />Danny Reynolds<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/strong-026-faith-in-futility-strong/
