Poems
Jun 2016
Columbus.
What happened
in Afghanistan and Iran, Iraq,
will come back to haunt us.
If we're right and they are wrong
or
they are right and we've done
wrong
it really doesn't matter much
we've touched a match to a fuse now lit,
time enough to wallow in ****
and that's where we'll be
up **** creek
paddling frantically.
Troop carriers carrying troop barriers to block the flood of refugees,
(humanitarian missions if you please)
what a ******* joke
mirrors and no smoke without fires
well I won't fight
wrong or right
we've all got a need to live.
The sinking don't swim,
nobody tells them this as
they get on the boats for
a serving of bliss
heaven can *******
it's not helping anyone
or maybe it's home for
the new breed of drone
and droning on
Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq
are coming back to
haunt us
