How A Battle Is Fought Poem by Haruna Garba

How A Battle Is Fought

Rating: 3.5


Not only with bangs
is a battle fought,
tongue tautens some torque
if your ears are the echoing types

Not only with cracks
is a battle fought,
think of the tact in tackle talk
if your perception is a clear one

Not only with your troops
is a battle fought
but also the influx of infiltrating filth
if your brain is any gadget of guile

Not only with bangs and cracks
is a battle fought
but also the pamphleteers' pen
if you have wits to call your own

Yes, the schemes of the mind, the craft of the tongue and the might of the pen aid the strength of the arm! :)
