Ballad of war

Like sometimes the world itself 
    would need something, 
  for instance,  Like a treatment of measles or care about 
    needle or TB or resolution or sweet or biscuit. 
  Does that not somehow 
  becomes a necessity or possibility 
   or a kind of the world's necks?. 
  Thus, people will become 
   two parties, one for and the other 
   against since sometimes 
   it's problem is five or seven 
   or some letters. 
  War breaks to decide who
    is a winner or a losser, 
    fill the world with attempts 
   whether deadly or enlightening 
    dividending. 
  Now, it is most alert 
   to corruption and smothering fear 
    and triumph.
