Trilogy of Terror

A metaphorical allegory
Real life-or a war story
The first one was to end them all
So they called it great
The next saw evil rise and fall 
One's hate had sealed his fate 

One Korea to Saigon
Russia to Bulgaria
China to Taiwan

Bloodshed in Syria 
My God, oh my dear God

A rhyme to this riddle
A time span, we're in the middle
then rising from the East
conflicts in between
Dragons, bears n beasts!
Silent ears...and calls for peace

The cries...the sighs
The where's and the why's?
The children, the wives
fight or fold...from high up in the sky 
the truth out there untold
"kill- means clean"
" infidels, in hell there time convenes "
Paradise for martyrs, now hot under my collar
The hot spots from the steam 
An Eagles founding father's??

Please wake me from this dream!
Then Star's and stripes lit up at night!

Stay and Fight or fly away?
Then carnage-all I'd seen!
Yet not to their dismay
To me what did this mean?
Yes Oh yes we'de pay- Learning things- the hard way
So Stubborn us beings

Between two and four
Once blind you're now seeing
The topic here is war
No trees in this here art
From sea to shining sea
A trilogy...we'de play our part
This land for you and me
Why didn't We?...When did it start?
It's planned...
It's World War Three..?
