REWARDS FOR THE WARMONGERS

 


REWARDS FOR THE WARMONGERS

 

Alas! An inordinate yearning to show an absolute supremacy

Over the small, weak and vulnerable countries that struggle for survival 

Intoxicates and drags the mighty and mad Heads to wage wars fatal,

Unmindful to and unaware of the real motto of a modern democracy!

 

Alas! A crude, shrewd and cruel craving to capsize

The steady, tranquil and cruising kneel of a country’s ship

Captures the unpricked Conscience of an despotic Leadership,

Blind, blatant, bestial, brutal, bloody and myopic and unwise,

To play with the innocent bloods of the countless pious souls,

To wreck horrible havocs despite being denounced and hated as Moles!

 

Alas! An illegitimate longing for dangling the Super power’s Badges,

The Warmongers force the millions to stay starved, naked or in rags!

Yes, they stab the mankind, rob global peace, spread panic and sow poverty

Scoff at the universal liberty, and push the global future to a scary uncertainty…..!


Say, what has to be the befitting rewards for the savagery of the warmongers?

They must be banished from the earth and thrown, to atone, into the hell fires!
