War

Why so ignorant?

Why so naive?

Why so blind?

You fill my eyes with fury.

Even though I feel this way,

My mindset, I shall not betray.

Because at the end of the day

What have you accomplished?

Homes demolished

Lives diminished.

You’ve scarred the young children,

Widowed the young women,

And caused regret for the old.

Where are our men?

In a pile in a forest.

Now tell me again,

What were you trying to accomplish?

 

Whatever it was,

You Lost.
