Pawns, By Brian37

 

Hitler's youth, Jihad's "truth"

Anti-abortion we must defend

Toy guns grow up too

Becoming real with utopia zeal

 

Take the sponge

The empty slate

Rape it's mind

With certain fate

 

The only way

It is to be

The real children

Are the adults

 

Without the elders

In the same room

The little one's fairness

On it's own forms

 

Allah Akbar

Jesus loves me

How can a sponge

Understand?

 

Yet they tell them

And pass it down

To the next generation

And no peace at hand

 

The adults

Are the real children

Afraid of the boogiemen

The "outsiders"

 

Tribalism, nationalism

Labels and religion

Are adult beefs

Not that of children

 

No one is special

Among 7 billion

Yet all our species

Protect their children

 

We can do better

Than to sell division

To raise them with guns

Instead of debate

 

Only the rise

Of rational thought

Teach them to think

For themselves

"We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus -- and nonbelievers."Obama
