'' We Do Prefer Living '' Poem by Bri Mar

The futility of war needs exposing,
In peace we have got to believe,
On genocide we are now overdosing,
It's time for the politicians to grieve.

Arms dealers lined against a wall,
Of their armoury we will try out their best,
We will refuse when they ask us to stall,
When on them their weaponry we test.

Our refusal to fight for corrupt politicians,
Will send a shiver through their bones,
We'll tell them where to shove their munitions,
Already we can hear their groans.

Let them do the fighting it's only fair,
What they start they must see to the finish,
Once of the horrors they become aware,
Their stomach for a fight will diminish.

Intelligent beings destroying each other,
Makes a mockery of the word Humane,
After every conflict the truth we smother,
The fact is they all died in vain.

Instigators of war are sick in the head,
Human brutality can be so unforgiving,
When to the front politicians were led,
Their cry was,

‘' We Do Prefer Living ‘'
