The Expense To Keep Peace Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

The Expense To Keep Peace



If conflicts on the rise,
Were not considered...
A lucrative enterprise,
Would there be in the lives of many...
An economic crisis to fear?
With weapons to purchase,
To endear to prevent the existence of threats.
Only the expense to keep peace,
Seems to be the reason pockets are empty.
And a purpose one pays to escape from terror.
Hoping to protect from their own reflections.
