Soldiers Of No Cause. Poem by RAVIKIRAN ARAKKAL

Now that the world
Is more enlightened
More demo-cratic,
Than ever before,
Soldiers have become
Fighters of no cause,
Only eating and defecating,
Going about in uniforms,
Said to be of descipline,
But with no moral desciplines,
Raping, looting, plundering
The people of attacked
Nations in despair,
which are already
In moral conflicts unknow,
The soldiers have become
Robotic morons,
With no intelligence, wisdom
Bunched together
As unwedded mostly,
Lustling unbearably,
For love and copulation,
Man's tranformed being
In uniform has ended up
As soldiers of no real cause.
