War is about
forms of revenge
fear and hate
wasted energy
war has been fought
for centuries
man has been
fighting for things
clinging to things
not realizing
what kind of things
to cling to
we understand
the need for peace
yet we cannot
find peace’s path
imagine
there’s no war
there would be
no sadness
heartbroken mothers
weeping wives
lost children
war destroys life
peace embraces
with each breath
there is security
without thirst
only fulfillment
