Peace Over War -
One last time with the poem, that has also been well-received on Your Poetry Dot Com. What can I say--I'm multi-talented
Right clenched fist.
Oil-fueled blood lust.
Poor men fighting for the rich.
A new empire beckons.
Left open hand,
stop, wait, think.
Question the knowledge.
Ask what you're being fed,
corporate processed
for the protection of the powerful.
I've chosen my path.
Closed hands hide things.
WMD's that can be debunked
with WMI's.
I choose to tread the path of peace.
Peace is pre-emptive.
Eliminate the fuel
and you quench the flame.
Stand like the heroes did.
Fear in their hearts,
fire in their bellies.
We're on a roll now
but need to keep on.
