Terrain Of War

Terrain Of War

What exists here is hell in its wicked ugliest

Undulating flooded craters swallow the fittest

Constant explosions blast bodies to smitherines

None expect to see another dawn by any means !

Whatever you dream, life is to come to an end,

On being devoured by a monster you can depend

Many have already fallen into a bottomless abyss

Lying decaying in mud with nothing of value to miss.

Insanely sacrificed to the whim of those seeking glory

This atrocity will resonate long in mankinds history

How can countless lives be considered worthless ?

How can all sense be relinquished to utter darkness ? 

Horror offering only misery and destruction to any one

Look at what once beautiful fields have now become.

Hello, Richard! This poem is so relevant to our times. I like it and I like the line "Insanely sacrificed to the whim of those seeking glory." That is so true! It is my hope that our world starts to see the destruction of innocents and the chaos created by war, and starts to see other solutions to conflict. Thanks for the read! Hope your day goes well! Susan
