The Last World War

The UN plays a reluctant game
While the Middle East is all aflame,
With Iran, Syria and Gaza
Sharing an intense desire
To stir the brightly burning fire,
Soon, they'll reach the point
Of no possible return,
When atomic fires start to burn
And the mushroom clouds will rise
Spelling general demise
For all mankind - far from wise.

Said the big joker
- up above:
'Of these mortals
I've had enough.'
