RELIGION COLLISION
sparks fly
poor children cry
amid religion’s divisions
people die
doctrine seems to matter
more than lives
what if we disagree
so nobody dies?
what if we gave
just a smidgen
invoking
no religion?
keep faith
free of paradox
giving peace
to each other
instead of gored ox
sitting smug in our pews
intolerant of views
that are foreign
full of derision
beyond religion
intolerance’ off-spring
came home to roost
laser-guided reminders
evil is loosed
militant jihadists
dreams will come true
when death is the goal
the drones are on you
