War Of Contempt Poem by John Weber

War Of Contempt

Rating: 5.0


Without the quest for redemption
The populace play idle games
Gigabits won't grant exemption
When sovereignty goes up in flames

Genocidal business mission
Funding both sides of each conflict
Stoking the flames of ambition
Bankrupting countries by edict

New orders rooted in the past
Proffer real wealth for dead paper
They sow ignorance vile and vast
Freedom dissolving like vapor

Warranted balance sheets dictate
Suitable loss as they see fit
Diseased airwaves warn us to hate
While poisons infect the mess kit

Failing sweet liberty's daughter
Uranium shells pierce and spall
Embedding explosive slaughter
Self-righteousness annexing all

Peace proves a word of corruption
Imposing control serves their end
Troops and camps to quell eruption
When cheated free souls won't pretend

Babel rebuilt before our eyes
Covert designs from ancient times
I recognize the Fourth Reich's rise
Never ignoring their war crimes
