The Survival Of The Greek Alphabet Poem by Ted Sheridan

The Survival Of The Greek Alphabet

Rating: ★5.0


Man does not go to war accepting defeat.
Man goes to war knowing innocents will die
How many will be killed or spared is unimportant
Except as it pertains to the enemy and his ranks
And after all the bodies and the munitions
Have been accounted for and counted as spent
The world will have not changed one iota
But rather it will have been kept in proper order….
