I am WAR- Weeping

In such a world of conflict, a world of victims and executioners, it is the job of thinking people, not to be on the side of the executioners.- Albert Camus.

 

I am WAR,

that ugly-faced w***e.

Did you see me, raping the little girl in Darfur?

Yes, my noise is loud,

                  a mindless voice,

                       a wicked “free world” choice.

I bomb, I shell,

I raise all hell,

I have a rotten, stinking smell.

I am democracy’s hypocrisy;

the slayer weeping “mommy”, while innocent blood sheds.

In Gaza,

did you see the little ones without their heads?

Destruction is my dogma, my cruel creed;

on ignorance and greed I feed.

Politics is my pampered pet,

to make my “right” seem correct.

I’m your religious lies,

serving soul-less minds with evil eyes.

I am prejudice but, I don’t discriminate,

I kill life and exterminate.

Yes,

I am WAR,

that ugly-faced w***e.

Do you really want some more?

This is a very Pacifist piece, but I like it! It rhymes really well, almost so well that I don't even know it's rhyming. It's very smooth. Great job! Although I'm not sure what's up with the random indentation on the top.

Righteous piece. I want to say so much more, but, then...debates are for debating sites, I think. Very well done, god of peace (there was absolutely no sarcasm to that, either. you've just earned a title is all).

[Dark Empress]

Wow, that's amazing. Fabulous. I could feel the emotions rolling off of this poem. It's harsh but it sends a message. Very good write, I love it. :)

Powerful poem. I enjoyed reading this poem. So glad you posted this. Fabulous write. I love the language that you used and the harshness of the message, because it about war. War isn't pretty and tidy. People need to be more aware of what all is going on.

What a firing lines of power and liberty, I would recommend it as everyday song for all forces of "Resistance".

[Abd-afeez]

Good message delivered between those line. It is a very nice piece.

[THE LOST ROSE]

Wow it is to bad this could not be an email sent to Washington DC? Maybe something would get done. Because finding Osama isn't working. They might as well solve this problem. I enjoyed how you made yourself the third person which is a tragic occurence. You did not make yourself a human being at all. Very creative. A must read for every WC particpant.

[Seracies]

Wow. You embodied the being of war perfectly. I applaud how you went all out, you were truthfully blunt about the ugliness of war while never loosing your poetic flow. Very nicely done.
