Eleventh of Nine

 

We’re governed by greed, where oil is gold.

America’s children, get sent from their home.

They stand on the sand, in the desert of heat.

An invisible enemy, who’ll never retreat.

A war that’s not war, in a land that’s not ours.

A month of your wages, to fuel up our cars.

Searching for weapons, that no one can find.

Seeking revenge, for the eleventh of nine.

[Teri B]

Human nature remains rooted in coveting that which is not ours, and in keeping others down to attain it.
