Eye for an Eye...

The hatchet is buried but the
anger still smolders underneath
The peace talks are just a show
to hide what goes on beneath

Need for vengeance is a thing
we humans are cursed with
The peace talks are a time off
we take so that we can breath

The fight goes on endlessly with
one party avenging the other
The war and killing will never end
until we all finally kill one another

'An eye for an eye makes the whole
world blind' Mahatma Gandhi said
But to these great words of a great
Mahatma no attention is ever paid
