oh war

[peter7805]

Oh war
You are my enemy
You destroyed my life
You killed my family
You blinded people’s eyes
You say it’s for right
But you tell a lie
Oh war
You are a murderer
You bring the world death
You slay the children of fathers
You burry their wives
You say it’s for peace
But that isn’t why
Oh war
I hate you and want to kill
But I am too weak to fight
Because you have powder and you have gun
But I have no weapon and I am bare hand
You are the nightmare last forever
I am just in agony and disaster
Oh war
You are an animal and a beast
You drink blood and you eat meat
You tear the flesh of peace
You swallow the people’s priest
You are the devil and the ghost
You are the terrorist and racist
Oh war
You are so cruel
One day you will ruin the whole world
And now I wonder who makes you
It has such scaring power
It is the darkness in man’s heart
So please God
Say it：let there be light
When will the light come to earth?
Let us wait together

Wow Peter... That's telling them. I to dislike war and feel as you do, in this poem. Well done sir.

Yup. War sux (sic).

Since you offered a rant or tirade, I tried reading your piece with a speed-metal sensibility - which actually worked until the last 4-verses.

I did so also because of the bold large type you offered as a presentation. If that was your intention I would recommend ALL CAPS as well.

Perhaps a line break and then the final 4-verses for a change of pace.

Hope you got 'that' off your chest.
