War...what is it good for?


Mutations mounted amid

supremacies brigade

volatile illusions

transcend

light

of

day...

Muted voices whisper

strangled cry of night

open pores

hunger

soldier's

resume

survival's

fight...

Pilgrimage to pillage

village of dead souls

glittering chalcopyrite

moron's paid

while

life

is

sold...

Weary battle worn

bitter pills of scorn

hero's stumble home

politic's lavishly adorn

medals from

mother earth

pinned

on our

scarred

reborn...

War is good for those who still resent not getting that toy gun for Christmas. Sorry for the sarcasm. Your poem hit the spot.

GET U.S. OUT of Iraq, we did what we went there for, tumbled Sadaams regime, what else is there to do, bring our boys home, an excellent poem, ~Z~, I just hope deprogamming is not too hard when our troops do return...I remember after 'Nam, too little deprogramming then...Peace is the Only Way, Ed & Rufuz

(((zenith)))

painful, vividly described, the horrors of war

well done

i love eileen's question--i fear the answer is "probably not" since we've killed their women and children--revenge will be foremost on their minds

God help us

(((HUGS))) and love, karla. :( *tears*
