NEVER FADE AWAY

War is a business machine, an economic tool.


Poem Artwork

None can dismiss
the pointless business of war
so obviously constructed
as it grows ever more.
Profits filling
the industries accounts
while thousands are dying
filling holes in the ground.
Sooner or later
it will backfire
one business will make
another expire,
a war to end all wars
man made .com
will herald the beginning
of the end.
A little while longer
no flesh would be saved
so said a peaceful man
who knew the outcome,
that message has spread
all over the Earth
telling quite clearly
if you live by the sword
so you shall die.
So it goes on
with the kingdoms of the Earth
they continue their business
of continuing wars,
yet their kingdoms are numbered
soon to fade
replaced by everlasting peace
that will never die away.

After the last battle, the deadliest one of all, there will be an everlasting peace. I hope so.

I absolutely doubt that will ever happen. Maybe, I guess, bu I doubt it.

Let us hope w will come too our senses before that happens.

Just think about it. War suddenly gives our side, the one with God with us, to dehumanize the other side and kill innocents, noncombatants like children, women and old people, in other words, murder them. All under the euphemistic excuse of "collateral damage."

I do hope that collateral damage catches those in power ordering those murderous orders by surprise.
