The wilder edges, hidden cliffs of life
Sorrow slides into the hearts unnamed
As we see our neighbours fall to strife
We make our minds up, this won’t happen twice
We act from some gut feeling reason’s lame
Walking the wild edges,tossing dice
The anger and the rage pierce all, disguised
No caring for opponents. sharing blame
As we and many neighbours fall to strife
The smartphone has no answers I surmise
I googled “Ending war” but nothing came
The Pennines have wild edges that surprise
The white rose and the red rose compromised
The Queen used like a weapon in the game
As we and once loved neighbours fall to strife
See our faces wet with bloody stains
We prefer to fight, than use our brains
Oh,wilder edges, flowers, would bring delight
If our neighbours end this goddamned fight
