EXPLAIN  TO  ME  PLEASE

Explain to me please
If you can
Why people simply cannot learn
To love their fellow man

Explain to me please
If you can
Why “peace” is forced with guns and bombs
Over lines drawn in the sand

Explain to me please
If you can
The need for nuclear armaments
That we really ought to ban

Explain to me please
If you can
Why innocents should suffer war
They neither sought nor ran

Explain to me please
If you can
Why people simply cannot learn
To love their fellow man….
