The Beginning of Wisdom

Bemoan wretched fascism. Strive for pacifism.

The Beginning of Wisdom

“Russia must be eliminated. The deadline is the spring of 1941”.-Hitler

Bemoan wretched fascism

Strive for pacifism

O majestic Peace!

An azure zone!

Heaven starred with gold!

One more nuclear nation

wrong again!

Is it fair?

Oh that these nations dismantled the Bomb!

Elijah’s flaming chariot warns you

Jehovah warns you

‘Go like Elizah’

Doubts, fears

One more country becomes nuclear

Destroy nuclear arsenal

For total peace

See only the good in oters

Find the ultimate

Though Ten Commandments

No bloodshed

if we care about other persons

learn from the stars

a bit of light dispels darkness

suffer, serve

not govern

destroy nuclear arsenal

The rose weeps

Muses mourn

Grant us peace

Through intercession

O pure virgin

This is a very relevant poem in the wake of the tsunami and nuclear melt down. We need more saved souls.
