Time To Operate
by
Robert Cameron Hazelton
How can anyone have such lack of regard
For the precious gift of human life
Would these assassins have tried so hard
If the target had been their child or wife?
Trained like dogs from the time of their birth
To extinguish existence with practiced ease
Their ultimate goal is to ravage the earth
Bringing "non-believers" to groveling knees
A cry of outrage must be fervently voiced
A constant vigil must be forever maintained
When bloody murder is openly rejoiced
Righteous indignation cannot be contained
This evil cancer must be surgically removed
Such malignancy will eventually devastate
If left untouched it will most certainly prove
That goodness can indeed succumb to blind hate
