Violence is Not The Answer (Acrostic Poem)

 
V iolence is Not The Answer
I s seemingly conventional wisdom
O n the surface, it seems logical
L ove is all you need right?
E vidently, looking at humanity, not so
N eedful things are things you can't do without
C hances are you could survive without love
E ven if loneliness partly destroys
 
I solation is not always a bad thing
S olitude can be a positive  
 
N ot many people agree with that
O nly love is the answer say, hippies
T rying to find love can be fraught
 
T his for many people is a fruitless search
H eroic but ultimately unsuccessful
E vidently, real love is very rare
 
A nd liars and con men abound
N eedful violent revenge plausible  
S tab, slash and intimate swordplay
W age war never surrender
E veryone is culpable, every one guilty
R e-load and keep firing is the answer
