Either Or For Friend Thad

Rating: 5.0


A thought has just occurred to me.
When someone claims a victory
then someone else suffers defeat.
A simple thought that is complete.
You either win or else you lose,
there is no alternative to choose.
Acceptable when it’s a game.
A fleeting bid for some small fame.
Transfer it to the battleground,
this simple thought becomes profound.
You win you live, you lose you die.
That is the harsh reality.
Until we find a better way
then men on other men will prey.

Wonderful read Ivor! Thank you! Yes war is different from a game - Make war 'only' on the internet If you must! And the only casualty, then would be A v-i-r-u-s? Best wishes! *10*! ! ! Friend Thad

Win or lose, The end's the same. With all of life's miscues It's how you play the game. s
