War

WAR

In peace you 
frown
Tussle is your 
work tool
pain,turbulence 
and anger are 
in thy armoury
T'reat holds an 
upper hand in 
thy army
Thy assign 
force as an 
army staff

War you paste 
armistice in the 
heart of men 
clearing their 
wages with 
blood;
and   editing 
fear from the 
recruit
arming the 
with 
sophisticated 
weapons.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
