War

The drumbeats louder by the day

the nations brace for war...

Questions mounting by the hour

What are we fighting for?

Approval sought by all concerned

and soon they give consent...

Their conscience seared by many lies

we know they won't relent...

The rockets will explode at night

and blood will paint the streets...

Aggressors will impose their will

and then they will retreat...

The families then will mourn their dead

it's all so justified...

The course of action guaranteed

and many more will die...
