War of the words

Our beliefs don't seem to agree

So please won't you see

We have to battle it out

No talking about it over tea

 

One of us is not pure enough to exist,

The wrong religion

There can never be peace between us
not even a smidgen

 

I believe in "A", and you believe in "B"
A comes before B, so my letter must be true

You never did anything against me

But i'll drop the bomb and say screw you

 

Now the world is in full turmoil

Alll because we let this petty squabble boil
I'd like to be brothers, but you're just too wrong!

I'm forcing this silly little fight to be prolonged.

War of the Words:

 

Enjoyed your poem it is a good read and it demonstrates how petty are some squabbles are and how dangerously overblown they can get.  There are many variations on religion to explain God our creator, it's a pity as you say that many of them just don't get on, and run out of relevance. Your poem is thought provoking.

Well, if you believed in B,

Well, if you believed in B, it would be good. 

But since you believe in A... I'm not so sure. ;)

 

But really, nice to see your work again bittersweet poison.
