A Wellspring of Hate

In believing our faith
is the fount of all knowledge
that others are evil
unworthy of existence

Seeing threats
from our neighbors
because of their creed
what they believe in

The divide of religion
sending so many
to the dogs of war
to acts of terrorism
leading so many
to senseless death
