War, I hear a nation desperate to defend freed men.
Break abetting submarine warfare,
Encourage war to end hurriedly.
They attack to defend what the sub destroys.
Try to conduct Americas fight,
To skirmish guarding them.
O’ oppressed England!
I intend ferocious war alongside comrades.
The nemesis falls.
A solid homeland upsurges.


The author's comments:
This is a Philish poem. For those of you who don't know what that is, it is a poem where you have to match the character count of the word with the word it agrees with in the number "Pi". This one goes to 33 numbers out, therefore, 33 words. It is a description of Wilson's War Message.
