Biafra, somewhere in Nigeria

in #war7 years ago

There was the time our parents worried about what their sons would eat. Today, they don't want food anymore. They've all become blood-thirsty. My brothers have lost touch of their humanness, ready to cease any given opportunity to slit throats and break the bones of a fellow mortal in the name of a dream that promises the death of their families. Must we experience the sadness of violence before appreciating the lessons we already have in war-torn nations? Syria. Yemen. Libya. Iraq. Somalia. Afghanistan for crying out loud!
I guess I am just another self-opinionated fool clowning under the costume of a sorry keyboard hoping to be taken seriously. And as I type this, I hear the buzzing sound of a chopper hover over my office building and the blaring of sirens around it. Are we few minutes away from another sporadic shooting? Which mother is about to lose a son? What community is going to dig more graves? God will not be blamed for the stupidity of a tribe that orchestrates its very extinction.
This would probably be read just here on steemit; but I am confident if many find the opportunity to decide their fate today, they'll agree with me and sheathe their swords for the sake and peace of an unborn generation.
