A walk through volatility

Stench of violence

Floating in the air.

Fire flies high

Seeking the metal bird

And, with its chicks

Brought it down

In pieces,

Smeared with blood

Charred physiques

Brutally snatched.

And, MH17 a violated history.

This day humanity

Opened their eyes

A little late, a little slower

Will they remain opened ever?

To the smell of blood and smoke

Charred remains of human bodies

Between the glitters of worldly things

Lie silently beckoning honour.

Yet still the war is not over

Bodies not all gained their respective place

Fighting against time, countries send reps

To claim their own, a decent burial is all they crave for.

How long this shall go on?

In Gaza the relentless battle is on

Buildings gone homes shattered

Again a bloody battle where many died.

Irrespective of age, the missiles splits open

The values and lives of many

In search of peace, they run helter-skelter.

In Nigeria another form is ruthlessly ruling

By name they are known as Boko Haram

Shielding in the name of religion

Violent uproots the essence of humankind.

Peace is the call, yet in pieces things go

The gripping fear of suffering and death

Is not understandable nor experienced

By us sitting in the living room listening to the news.

The birds and clouds speaking of all these

What a shame to mankind in whole!!

Somebody is playing the rock and roll

Embattled souls let them die

Somebody is playing the rock and roll

United Nation is just round table stuff!!

Is war here for good?

Is war a fated tale for mankind?

Is war a way to divide and rule?

Is war a game of technological challenge?

Is war a religious obligation?

Is war a racial demarcation of superiority?

Is war a manifestation of polarized conflicts within?

Is war a magnified version of strength manipulation?

Is war barter for survival?

Is war a passion for hunters?

Is war territorial greedy reach?

Is war here for good?

War in essence

A primitive yet brutishly

Raw emotion!!.
