Mankind Has Forgotten War Poem by T N McCoy

Mankind Has Forgotten War

Rating: 5.0


Hail worn-out paths and beaten shore!
Mankind has forgotten war.

No longer fear a threat or more;
Gone forever army gore.

From deepness down on life's ground floor,
Empty bowl of hope abhor.

Leaders function and hearts explore,
Full Orb finds serene rapport.

Hail peaceful isle and modern roar!
Mankind has forgotten war.

What we do not remember, we are doomed to repeat. The civilized man cannot win; for war is the most primitive of man, lacking the will to control himself and not being able to control his world, he wars, due to ignorance, poverty or just greed, we fight. When the cost becomes too high or we tire of it all, we turn our backs and hope it will go away, but hate, ignorance, and poverty are not civilized. So where does that leave mankind? ? ? nice poem, very true. T
