Dead Soldiers

What kind of man or women would kill another human on command?

Dead Soldiers

 

 

At the gravesides they weep
Those creators of creatures
The mothers of monsters
Who kill without thought

 

A flag in one hand
In the other a bible
They praise god and country
It’s why their child fought

 

A person of reason
Would take time to ponder
Before sending their children
To shoot and be shot

 

There’s only one question
That’s left to be answered
Would death have been found
If it was truth that they sought.
