The creed will outlive all here now their children's children repeating endlessly those foolish enough to negotiate only give us pause to become stronger we push with steel till we meet steel then hold and wait till we can push again no side wins or loses the forces clash the blood pools rises recedes leaving bones turning dusty while endless fresh baby bones bloody from their mother's belly emerge and carry on to no conclusion the trump is silent endlessly cycles forever. by Henry Burt Stevens 03/15/2005 www.authorsden.com Video

We have not learned how to break the cycle and thus humanity is at odds with the planet. Well said, Henry. Love and peace. Regis

Someday, God willing, we'll figure it all out... but until then, we try to break those cycles, even though we never quite get there... great write...

Superb poem Henry! It does at times all seem like a never-ending cycle without reason. That's why faith is so important.
