People.
Ordinary people
'like you and me' sort of people
people just trying to live a lifedo what they do
believe what they believe
worship who they will
and all that
free from fear of ridicule
assault
persecution
fear of attack
of death...
always in fear
People...
trying to enjoy a life
to dance and party
now want to fight.
Trying to enjoy a life
raising a family
now wanting to sign up to kill
perhaps be killed.
Trying to enjoy a life
to defend what they see as right...
to exist
not to have to cower in basements
as sirens wail...
to have their life
not bullets and bombs and rockets and hate
not to hate your neighbour so
that you want to kill them
with knives and guns and munitions
...or with your bare hands - you want to kill them!
