LET'S NOT, FOR GOD'S SAKE, MANUFACTURE WEAPONS!

LET'S NOT, FOR GOD'S SAKE, MANUFACTURE WEAPONS!

Let's not manufacture the deadliest weapons of mass destructions;
That can, within less than a second, bulldoze all the lovely and golden global constructions,
That can erase all the oldest and the green est trees of peace, harmony and fraternity,
That can dry millions of perennial streams of agility, happiness, sweetness and serenity!

Let's not proliferate the ghastliest ammunitions for our sordid and short-lived gains;
That can, within less than a moment, call the hell to build on earth deaths' mammoth mountains,
To wake the man-made live volcanoes of limitless devastations up forever,
To extinct all the living organisms like dinosaurs leaving not a liver to respire!

Let's not buy and amass the most lethal armaments emptying govt. exchequers,
Misusing the hard and honest sweats of the labourers, tax payers and workers;
To establish short-lived supremacy, to feed egos with the delicious-dangerous dishes,
To dig the unfathomable ditches for all, and turn the heaven on earth into black ashes!

Let's not, for God's sake, too blindly indulge in the gory and regrettable arms races,
Before it is too late to repent and cry in vain when the whole earth instantly perishes!
