When the sky
rained bodies
In the
sunflower field,
Harmony stood
astonished
at the
condition of her sister
Peace.
When she
heard the loud explosion
as the
buildings rattled in fear,
She shut her
ears
to the drums
of war.
When a
corpse fell through her roof,
she looked
up at the sky amazed
at the
hatred in the hearts
of her
family.
Wondering
how the fluid of love
Had slipped
out from the sieve of
Brotherhood.
When she saw
naked bodies,
some intact
and some mangled,
she cried
for her lost children.
Pulled,
snatched and torn
in strife.
Harmony now
stood hunched
surrounded
by lifeless limbs
and wept
clenching her heart tight
as she
couldn’t locate her sister
Peace.
Falling down
to her knees
in fields of
the dead,
she watched
the results of
disharmony,
and prayed for
Global Brotherhood,
Global Love,
Global Understanding,
To be
introduced
in large
chunks
in the minds
and hearts
Of her
divided children.
