Wars are the waves

of civilisation’s terrible toll,

when powerful men

(and I do mean men)

decide that death is worth

fighting for, and life,

that should breathe

sense into the

thoughts of men who

know the finality of

death’s finger pointing,

is ignored in its

tear-filled call to

lower the guns

and not let the

logic of death

have its dreadful

and inevitable way.
