Word threats
aimed at humanity,
like missiles...
why are we always
in such a hurry to fight?

Why can't everyone sit and focus
on PEACE tonight?

How many PEACE plans
did we wholeheartedly bring to the table?
How many PEACE initiatives
did we enable?

Does history not tell us WAR is futile?
Does HUMANITY not care when it is being brutal?

Why are we always in such a hurry to fight?

Have you ever seen a WAR
that had PEACE as its offspring?

Why can't we just try for PEACE tonight?

Maybe the world's warriors
should sit on their guns
and contemplate the end result.
(Suppository-like?)

Thanks!
I really would like to see all the weapons put down....instead of bodies.

I am so totally with you in this, dear Kacy!

We are in bad need to focus on the awakening to love and understanding, so that we may truly be called a "civilized and evolved" species.

Love and Peace!

I'm glad that a few 'fellow travelers' on these fine blue sands of "P.I.P.-land"
are not yet completely 'demoralized' by the "Runaway American Dream" and
human nature at large and still have the 'spirit' to do "social impact/conscience"
writes!

Applause!!

Ah, my dear diamond poet, You are a true poet. I lost you When you wrote something about the true world. A very diffrent one. I like this one and felt your feelings. But it is different.

Always a wonderful poet.

This is Kacy!  Loved it, especially the humour at the end!

I have just found the ANSWER TO WORLD PEACE!  Just get the whole world to come to PIP and read every word every day and in so doing, become infused with the beautiful spirit of the Pipsters.  It is that simple.
