ANOTHER WAR
Worth
For a man to live he must
Be rated highly
Unable to fit within the confines
Of rules imposed
He will never be treated with
Any sensitivity
Wars
They rid indiscriminately
All those that harangue the hierarchy
The god of uniformity
Must be worshipped ceaselessly
Death to those on the periphery
Liberty
To kill another man in the name of liberty
Is the rehashed creed of global greed
To some a country is free only if
It deserves to be
No thought for the individual calamities
Visited on the citizenry
Democracy
The conspicuous lack of a coherent
Long term plan is galling
We are led to believe
That the gun will solve all and
Democracy must echo from
The west to all parts of the globe
Machismo
Machismo rules the day
The headlong rush into battle
Is fuelled by testosterone
Destruction as always is its intimate bedfellow
No thought by the combatants
Of the Day after victory
Media
The bodies that litter the path of freedom
And hinder its progress
Are food for the media
Whose interest feeds the vicious cycle
Of the desecration of humanity
For short term gain
Economics
Economics has infiltrated politics
Business men fool Blind law makers
And selfishly rule the day
The gun of freedom is followed
By the grasping hands of trade
The debacle of lives illegally lost
Is but a boardroom coup
Politics
A dangerous game we play
When we infiltrate another polity
To interfere and set it free
Democracy after all has lots of pseudo varieties
Why must we champion one way to control
Over another with its local peculiarity?
So many reasons can cause hate
So many options for making mistakes
The decision to go to war
Must never be taken lightly

great write evrod,well written as it gets the mind thinking of all that lies behind wars .and how society and richness and greed are to to blame .good piece tina x
thank you. its a bit hard hitting ....but im glad it makes people think...wrote after reading so many articles in newspapers on war generally written by men excited at the prospect of being war reporters
i think you are right in the testosterone bit !! from a young age boys are driven to become powerful above the sexes . tina x
lol..what to me is galling about how women are treated is that most of the problems happen when we have male domination....men run the companies that created the financial crises , men are usually the tyrants running military regimes..why do they side-line women so....I think its because they remember their mothers thwarting their efforts to be naughty when they were kids so they do not want the feminine influence to check their behaviour..naughty step for all these men,,,,i think oestrogen injectiions should be given to some men
LOL you are so funny yet serious too!! next step oestrogen injections for all male political members ,new law needed first lol only women vote lol sorry evrod you have me laughing yet thinking serious too best wishes tina x
Good thought provoking write Evrod :)
thanks man....its not all bad ..lol.. for some war is good....sadly it is true....arms sellers etc do well. its unlikely war will never occur again but we have to make sure that politicians and proprnents of war tell te truth .ie the benefits and advantages as they see it and stop using emotive language to fool people into thinking that one bully govt should be replaced by another
