War zone
A commotion of crows
cawing at my window
a call to arms perhaps
what are you waiting for
get the job done
we have been patient
as the days and months
slipped by and the world
remained the same
this is our world too
we were here before
you ever set foot
before you ever appeared
we roamed the fields
and soared in the skies
when the earth was
a place of harmony
free from wars
and bitter divisions :
blessed are
the peacemakers
if you can find them
