(An insufficient poem on March 22nd 2016)
One is obvious, deadly, horrific
The bombings and shootings in Paris
Last year
The bombings in Brussels
Today
Committed by fundamentalists
Using fear
To spread terror
To spread division
Last year
Today
Tomorrow
Another attack on Europe
The other is less obvious
But insidious
To further a different agenda of hate
Fundamentalists use the fear
To spread nationalism
To spread division
Anew
We must resist both.
Or both attacks will prevail.
