    War's Mind

    In war’s mind the conflict becomes too great
    Exploding into the psychical it cannot be contained with vicious words shipped across country lines to taunt the enemy
    Neither side is willing to compromise
    So to satisfy that battle craving persons’ in power send toy soldiers out tot the firing fields to do their dirty work
    But what they fail to realize is that human sacrifice cannot stop a born ideology when it wasn’t conceived from flesh
    And so the blood shed continues as men on both sides engage back and forth portraying the enemy in the eyes of one another
    It becomes easy to fight for your country when the message is clear
    And since signals are never mixed we never question why we choose to defend a country that has never acknowledged us
    In war’s mind all is fair and it becomes easy to kill others on the surface
    And difficult to cope with after you’ve done the deed
    You see the greatest tragedy of war is that like love it doesn’t last forever
    But unlike love, war is human nature’s pride
    It is this pride that keeps us fighting
    Even if no one ever stops to ask why.!!!
