SHOULD COOLER HEADS NOT PREVAIL

Should cooler heads not prevail?
By james a. galgano

Perplexed by the winnowing tides.
Where the bow breaks ideology collides
While conflicting views with battle lines drawn
Are greeted with more than disinterested yawn.
The abyss like a fault line soon without resolution opens wide.
To swallow all hopes that peace will come anytime soon.
As if all hopes will fade never to be addressed by any blue moon.
Or longer if cooler heads do not soon prevail to ever resurrect peace.
And we are once more drawn into another world war at least.
Maybe worse the annihilation of all humankind in zombie apocalypse
Where we feed upon our own in the name of misspoken upon closed lips
Unwilling to speak on behalf of some needed agreed to compromise.
And we all are left to witness the dire peril born by unwillingness to positively improvise.
These are the times, which try our selfish souls prone to our own sought release.
Should cooler heads not prevail we may win the war of words but lose all peace?
