AN OPEN LETTER TO LIBERALS FROM A FREE MAN
... from the sadness of London on 7-7...
Is it possible that liberal thinkers
understand at last
that vicious and destructive terrorists
really are on killing sprees
to gain control over freedom?
Surely the message is getting through
that society cannot live
with snakes
on snake terms,
and that evil still lurks
and will have its way.
Longing for, speaking for,
and writing for peace
should never permit
second guessing our elected leaders
determined to undo sporadic murder
anywhere in the world.
From centuries of man's violence
toward man,
today's answers boil from volcanoes
of hate and ambition
to destroy and conquer
the more civil.
