The War is the World and the World is War
I do not like death,
let alone mass death.
I don't like the idea
of people dying
because one person was sick.
Enough want them all dead
to claim the blood stained soil
that once grew peaceful fields.
All life is valuable
I do not wish anyone death.
Only that one day they see
blood that has been spilt
in their own name.
Realizing what they have done,
as they taste the bile
rising from their stomach.
The voices of pain
drown their ears
till it eats them alive.
Because death,
Is too kind too fast.
For that kind of man.
Who starved their people
just to put a bullet in another
All for their own gain.
