 Contemporary poetry by Dan Donlan

WAITING AT THE GATE


No man a shadow should be
The Angel of death awaits quietly
Clearly my love is of humanity
In the valley of Needful things
Is the rights to protect others brings
There should be no bowing to false Gods
For God would not ask to kill another
No one should inflict pain on a brother
And we are all brothers under one roof
Children are starving in Africa
Poisened by the filthy waters Afganistan
Unload the tank and weapons of distruction
Fill the planes with clean fresh water
These wars of pride have gone on too long
In the religions of the world fill the plates
With not coins but food to feed the world
Raise from the Pillars of the earth
Not cannons but the grains living breads
Only deception awaits at the devils gate
Take the tornadoes ripping the earth as a warning
Praying to false dictates destroyed truth
