No Problems Solved or Solutions Sought

     Most wars are fought for nought  
         neither problems solved nor solutions sought 

     Thousands upon thousands upon thousands die, for what
         ~ that their partner-in-arms dig for them a plot

you've aptly described the senseless reality of war. War seems insane. I don't know if I'll ever understand it. I appreciate your words, though. Have a pleasant evening, Sara

Powerful Couplets on the uselessness of war, gw. It really puzzles me how mankind can be so thick-headed. Will we ever learn? Probably not. BB
