Brandee Augustus Poet Etheree

The Victor's War

War 
is sweet
victory!
We exposed their
weakness easily.
They were no real threat once
they realized that the fight
was done before their opened eyes.
Even if my win comes with their loss,
I can't shed a tear in front of the boss.

Kevin Mcallion August 10, 2009 at 7:38 AM Interesting stuff. This poem can be interpreted in so many different ways and that's what makes it so intruiging. A good write
