People of Discord (Free verse) by ShaNoN+960317485
I was bound by my religion
Strings thick as cords, of this society!
And we are People of Discord
We are striving to be free
An infant I was born, naïve to this discord
Bearer I was to become of this hierarchy
Came to realize and to note the friction
Raising eyebrow to this heat of traction
For the words were antonyms to the actions
And peace was what was preached to be realized
People of Discord
Promised we are the havens relief
Gods will was to drive the hordes of anarchy by fraction
Cut them down and slaughter their sections
A'least no quarter was to be asked nor given
The preacher, fanatics, vendors of gods, retold and told
People of Discord
Soon the flowers of peace will you see
I read the bible in darkened corners
Looked for the congruency of it in the Kuran
Both were but the same, preaching just the same
Words were of forge by the same irons
Cast by same rules of peace and tranquil states
Nothing of bitterment nor aftertaste was written
People of Discord
Religion does not call of you this, as it is
Killing was abhorred and reproof was in both laid
Peace, tranquility & brotherhood was praised
But the preachers bent the single words and plays
Cut out the whole and fed little lines to their affects
People of Discord
Your peers breath Satanâs abhor
Mind bending with promises of Eden
Laced with promises of victory from heavens
As they bestow arms to the ilk of me
The heads between our shoulders swollen
Itching to show faith to the heaven
Armed we rushed to slay the evils brethren
Struck down and expunged their lives
In sleep, in wake a difference it did not make
Hara-kiri in closed instance bore us out of lives wings
Whilst down in caves Alms for death we received
Thousands born Millions dead the war goes on
But we saw no end and peace was slipping its footing
Like an avalanche they came dwindled our hope
Thence I saw no end but the sourness of loosing
The god was gone or was he no more sided by us
For death I saw garbed in grieves little slacks
With arms of mighty and explosives we did lack
Coming down to slaughter us in most strong fashions
Little we knew ere we died that hell awaited with glee
For we died a cause for which no god did breath
So with my last breath, I send a curse to the evil seed
And smile as I embrace the reapers hungry scythe
