WHAT IF THEY GAVE A WAR.....

What if they gave a War

and nobody came?

What if no one died, or

was wounded,

and there was no one to blame?

What if no one had nightmares

and demons that came in the night?

What if we weren't afraid

of the darkness ~

what if we exposed our

souls to the light?

What if they gave a war

but every Mother's

child slept snug in his bed,

while politicians themselves

fought in his stead?

What if they gave Peace

and everyone came?

What if all was discussed,

in a certain time frame.....

what if there were no

bombs used to maim?

What if they gave a War

and nobody came?

Is your tombstone already

engraved with your name?

War. What is it good for?

Nothing.

Absolutely nothing.

For Shame.
