Uninterrupted Combat

…fighting for peace with guns is like bonking for virginity

it is a macho world but then women can be excellent killers

the barrel phallus washed from conscience dipped into blood

a thin membrane between defence and aggression heavily torn 


who wants peace when they can enjoy the fun of armed forces

weapons of mass destruction with human waste collateral damage

in a second whole nations can be amended and revised into nothing

seized by the fire when the iron is hot in pursuit of violent pleasure


and yet bravery is the courageous merit of never surrendering to

war mongers who are in it for the profits power and domination

who send others to the apocalypse while counting their money 

eye for an eye in need for cataract implants and retina detachment


like a condom greed sheathes acts of collusion violence betrayal

of upright values wrapped up in flaccid denial of liberty and life

constitutional rights terminate immaculate conception of freedom

to the rhythm of grenades shrapnel and heavy breathing in death


conscription leads the conquest of foreign fields and genocides

rape pillage and plunder sow seeds of slaughter and trenches

that divide marginalize discriminate in the name of civilization

happiness is a warm gun while the planet looks into the barrel …

I’m afraid your right Kai, in your general assumption of overall corruption, underlying most if not all of society, your analogy between war and sex, is expressed so well in a literary and real sense, you describe the world as you see it, if indeed helpless to change it, cheers David
