Why My Teardrops

sunrise to sunset,
“I shall make him cry”-
goal many people seek
all day long;
anguish and sorrow meals

tenets,
to cause ethno-religious war,
xenophobic messages nations
now rebrand as patriotic call to
duty,

homelands,
child-bearing-women to
widows by wars;

purchasing power,
potential threat to homes and
families,
danger to human security and
tomorrow.

Will world religions provide
succor?
Will big business allay the fear?
Only time will tell.
