Death and War
Who wins in a fight
Death or War
Who would make it into the light
Who would fall to the floor
Would Death with his scythe
Carve War into pieces
Would he scream and writhe
As the fighting ceases
Would War with his ire
Crush Death in his hands
And dance around his pyre
As victorious War stands
Would Death live without War
Would War live without Death
Or would they simply be
No more
I saw a prompt that said asked: "Who would win in a fight; death or war?" I think that one cannot live without the other. What do you think?
