War

Bullets scream at each other

Difference of opinion, different thoughts;

"I am right, you are wrong"

A pointed finger, scary behavior

Battle field previewed, we are at war.

Red silence, smoky ground, cruelty all over

"See, I win, you lose"

"Yes, but I was right, you were wrong"

Again, pointed finger, scary behavior

Battle field survey, we will be at war.

Ages pass, fighting together

Then, someday, at dusk, alone, far

No opinion to contradict, no thought to oppose

New battle field within, new war

Three fingers pointed back to the scary behavior

Now, I am at war.
