RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: HOLY WARS
The Curse
Religion can be a blessing
Just as often it’s a curse
Nothing good can happen
When we place religion first
The Muslims hate the Christians
The Christians hate the Jews
When people fight for faith
Both sides will always lose
The Shias hate the Sunnis
The Hindus hate them all
They all claim to be peaceful
Then we’re up against the wall
Too many wars have been fought
Not to know the damage done
When both sides fight for God
Holy wars are never won
