Hate

Don't think for a minute.

Now imagine

The world we live in

Is under siege by

Hate

A thief of life.

Hate

A trigger of war,

A healer of none.

Imagine one word

Turning us into monsters

Bringing out the beast in us

Killing off the child we was.

Hate

Degenerates us

Agape

Regenerates us.

But which one shall we choose?

We got so much to lose.

I Know All About Murder

I know all about murder.
There's demons down the border;
Aliens spew death like larva.
I know stuff to make you shudder;
Children bombed from hell to breakfast.
Now school is out in September.
From bad to mad to suicide bombers.
Best become a Koran holder.
