Listen

War

What for

Even the score

Abhor 

Blood pours 

Loss galore

Hate soars

Human gore

Does not restore

Do not ignore

The peoples roar

NO MORE!!

Very true, only if everyone understood the importance of humanity and that wars only bring omen with them, with grieving laments everywhere.. No one can actually benefit from bloodshed.. Sigh, especially at the cost of innocent lives being sacrificed, what could be much more disheartening. A very powerful and heartfelt poem this is, dear Deb, always love reading your work.. Sending love!

Deb, your poem is a powerful and moving call for peace. The imagery is stark and unflinching, and the tone is both passionate and defiant. I especially appreciate the way you use repetition to emphasize the futility and senselessness of war.
