WAR AND PEACE
The machines crush human feelings and emotions
The machines make slaves to all the weaker nations
Weapons are more dangerous to human beings
Because these kill and destroy the whole population
There have been warmongers in every part of the world
Since the agrarian society and the dawn of civilizations
There are some nations, under the influence of the devil
They want to make slaves of their neighboring nations
The war is more devastating than the Pandemic, COVID-19
To protect from it, yet has not invented a vaccine
Warmongers are like Zombies thirsty for blood
They are more damaging than a quack and flood
The soldiers drive crazy in behavior during the wars
In dealing with enemies, they don’t care about civilians
No one would like war across the whole world
It is imposed by only those who are bullying nations
Wars have left nothing to mankind except blood and tears
For the sake of peace, humanity always bears
From the human fraternity of the world, I will appeal
Stop the war, resolve the disputes with a peaceful deal
