Evil's tied around Earth like it's threaded,
70 believers including children beheaded.
Faith until the end, they weren't quitters,
Taken out by the Congo's Christian killers.
Nothing was stated on the nightly news,
You really go there for your world views?
I hate how corrupted all has now become,
Nothing changes, banging on the same drum.

A raw work on hard brutal behaviors that we enact on each other. An instance of our intolerance and hatred to others that don't believe as we do. Very nicely written
Thank you, all covered up under a rug and forgotten about, sad really.
A true write - unhappily so.
Thanks pal.
A perfect example of the hatred and violence we inflict on each other for simply believing different to us, powerful, honest and sad write
Indeed, thank you.
You are very welcome
Ironically, I actually first learned of this on the news. Terrible evil for sure. Thank you for writing this my friend. It needs to be read about .🌹👏
Oh really, was it mainstream? Thank you pal.
I heard about it on NewsNation. Not sure about the other networks, as that was where I happened to be tuning in at the time. I do try to watch multiple outlets to get a fuller scope of any given event. But I can at least credit them. You are most welcome, my friend—again, an urgent and important poem. Thanks for sharing. 🌹👏
Cool and no worries pal.
