War is good
Soldiers
Marching in time
To the beat of gun shots
Soldiers
With frozen blood
Marching in time
Crudely
To the beat of gun shots
Crevices flooded
With frozen blood
War is nice
Crudely
Constructed uniforms
Crevices flooded
With broken bullets
War is nice
Slapdash
Constructed uniforms
Abhorrent limbs
With broken bullets
Peace keepers shooting
Slapdash
Bandages on
Abhorrent limbs
Not coming home
Peace keepers shooting
At innocent children
Bandages on
Moms and dads
Not coming home
Blankly staring
At innocent children
Sobbing because
Moms and dads
Never seeing their families
Blankly staring
At unopen coffins
Sobbing because
Soldiers and warriors
Never seeing their families
Praying
At unopen coffins
Valiant
Soldiers and warriors
Are
Praying
That people can see
War is good

This wrote this piece as an ironic project for my english class. I hope this will inspire others to stand up against unnecessary war.
