Are we heading for a train wreck?

Clashing Ideals

 

Sounds of swords clashing

Smell of pain and death

Follow rivers of blood

Blotting out the full moon

 

Power of good ideals

Two of different thought

Forcing one

And then another

Until lives of pawns

Are on a line up front

With the sounds of swords clashing.

Dayvid, This is how changes occur and
how God uses us as 'pawns'. Great write!

It is bad enough when good ideals clash, but when stupid ideals clash we are in for a shitstorm. Patrick

Indeed, Dayvid. And your words express a universal and timeless theme of the human condition in this world/life. Thank you. Love and peace,

Ah what fools us soldiers were, for the causes we fought were lost from within.

I really like what Peter said!
I am taken by this visual piece
into the relationship of man and woman
involved inside their personal power struggles
we all do it (have our own perceptions)

yes, rich man's war, poor man's fight-- the pauper armies die in vain, soundclash of ideals wrought by corrupt elites.

Oh my yes, you have said a mouthful here. We are destines for some kind of crash for sure. What are we to do? That is the biggest question in my mind.

Good eye opening and mind thinking poetry.
Peace, love and light,
