PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I wrote this shortly after 9/11, while watching a news program. These were my thoughts

Killing is wrong.  Unfortunately, it's one of those things that happens from time to time.  Would you be able to live with yourself if you killed?  If we all put down our guns for five minutes, freeze frame the battlefield, think before we shoot, then we could work some things out.  Some things are unworkable.  Some can be talked over.  Take the bullets out of the gun.  Better yet, throw the gun to the side.  

This is about fighting with oneself to gain control over your own actions.  A persons mind is very complex, and sometimes evil thoughts can cloud ones mind.  This is a poem on the battle against hate within oneself.

I wrote this years about before 9/11. It was actually for a project I had to do in high school.

Any comments, good or bad, are welcome. Please leave a comment and let me know if you liked it, how it made you feel or what you didn't like about it. Thanks for taking the time to read my work. :)

This poem is about the Vikings, who plundered European costs for centuries in the midevil time period.  Viking culture was mixed into many other European cultures, seing as they mixed in with some areas of their plunders.
