slowness turned to still
ammo gone bullets traded
soldiers souls left jaded
the bodies piled high
so much accomplished?
for "peace"
controlled by the few
rich corporations
to make a quick buck
and ensure that an "enemy"
is created and defeated
and the few look strong and secure
smiling from behind their desks
