ESCALATING END

ESCALATING END When fire flares up in the bush or houseBe careful with what you use to put it outIt could well be just an additional fuelThat may shoot up everything out of control Excesses escalate into extremity in jihadAnd holy crusade becomes a child’s playGenerations of able men, women and childrenWasted away like rain flood in the hollow pit When a child bumps into another in game or playBe cautious how you take this simple offenceRetaliation escalates in multiple acts of revengeThis exceeds in measure the one that provoked it Look at September eleven and the after effectsWhat resources have we wasted in a show offThat has resulted in global economic crisesWhich have sent nations and men scampering The radical may sound unrealistic to the manyThat you should turn the other cheek when goadedPray and ponder on the age old teaching, to goExtra mile in achieving peace with men on earth
