War
Wars were fought
Lost or won
People built lives
Time is gone.
Lands were invaded
Left or kept
People returned home
Time is past.
Wars are fought
un-won or un-lost
People wreck lives
Time is now.
Lands are ravaged
Un-left or un-owned
People lose home
Time is present.
Wars won't be fought
History recalled or not
People will own lives
Time is hence.
Lands will be respected
Un-abused or un-raided
People will stay home
Time is future.
