Armageddon's drummers

I heard a beat from that distant drum
So wondered then how far we’d come
The call to war was strong & loud
But buried then beneath a crowd

OF wiser folk I could only hope
‘cos one more war & we’ll not hope

Our selfishness has brought us near
Pestilence, Famine, deadly fear
Will we selfishly seek to strive
In peace & prosperity to survive?
