Poem No Cease-Fire...
As the war in Iraq continues…
Opinions are not difficult
to encounter
Everyone is now an expert…
And appears to possess a
personal solution
Maybe it’s because
so many have not been touched until now…
Or the impact is universally
poignant and worrisome
Whatever the case, the conflict
is real…
And beyond the influence
of most
Yet expressions are unusually
robust…
Despite the powerless reality
Such status quo has not been
witnessed before…
But the fighting marches
on
Regime change is one mission
Killing the invaders, is
another
“No cease-fire will
be accepted”
“No prisoners taken”,
appears too
Our world has been transformed
overnight…
Before our eyes and before
our helplessness
Our hands are locked like
prisoners of war…
Still we have so much to
say about the situation aloof
A global civil war looms…
In the mist of international
disunity
Alliances are rudely realigned…
The stage is set for a new
world order
Salute to our powerful world
leaders…
We are now in a state of
global warfare
