The Meaning Of War Poem by Mike Berriman

The Meaning Of War

Rating: ★3.5


Politicians argue
Bugles blow
Armies march
Nations sing
Flags flutter
Crowds applaud
Bankers lend
Capitalists plan
Boys Dream
News Reports
Activists shout
Imposters pose
Cowards chatter
Heroes cry
Fathers groan
Mothers sob
Wives regret
Sisters lament
Children wish
History records
Politicians promise
Veterans suffer.
