War Weary

"Throughout history, it has been the inaction of those who could have acted; the indifference of those who should have known better, the silence of the voice of justice when it mattered most; that has made in possible for evil to triumph."

Haile Selassie Ethiopian Statesman 1892-1975

WAR WEARY

I am weary of war and dread to see

That our troops are once again to be deployed

But it has come a time that most agree

It is time extreme measures must be employed

Terror is at an all time high

Murderous atrocities beyond the pale

Threats by ISIS are our battle cry

This time our statement must not fail

While ISIS and Al-Qaeda thumb their nose

We can no longer sit idly by

They are behind the deaths of innocent souls

Again hijacked planes may fill the sky

Yes, I am weary of on-going wars

And  the boots of our soldiers on the ground

But it is time the cause is worth fighting for

And the murderous extremists must go down
