The Gateway to Heaven

Written for the Colouring the World contest_honorable mention

Folded hands in orison
to terminate the evil
predators of today's world.
Political wars and bloodbaths,
jabbing into the hearts of
innocent civilians,
gnawing at their delicate
flesh,steeping them in pools
of blood surely ushers in
"a door to Hell" unbidden,
unpremeditated,
unpalatable and
unhallowed.The firing
of cannon balls, the outburst
of expletives and bombshells
for usurpation of
money, power and position,
racking the whole world need to
be stopped permanently
and be the harbinger
of peace, love and happiness,
"The Gateway to Heaven".
