Facing The Fear

Stop the killing, stop the wars. Stop the weapons and their murdering scores. There's an escalating fear just birthing out there. Such despair, regret and torment. A black evil lurking everywhere. It's time to stop this pure insanity. Regain our morals, embrace our remaining dignity. Are we all so far gone that we can not see... It's our very fear that will set us free! To unite the races and become just one. To end the racist wars we have all begun. If we fail to see that this is our plight... Humanity's existence will have already fought it's last fight.

Additional Notes:
This poem may have been published by Poetry.com although I've done more research on this company and my findings don't look good. They tell me it will be published in their anthology, but this still may not be the case as I've found out that this is not the best company to be dealing with. I still have copy rights to this poem. Oh and I changed one word ( fight to unite) The original still has fight instead of unite.
