War

I dont understand why you would raise arms against your brother. If wordplay were introduced would you raise arms againt your mother. Would your sibling be an enemy?

I need to understand. Why is when I ask you to think of war, you think of warring against me but not against your true enemy. Your mind as vast and as wide in its thinking is limited in how you see me. 

You could easily in your mind picture me and gun, but could not picture me and fortune or me and strong family or me and prosperity. You could not see me in family because you are too busy seeing you destroying it. 

Turn the battle internal because it was always about you. You were broken and that is more difficult to fix. That requires the bodies of other men, of me. 

So keep the evil at bay and reverse it. Live, but more than that, live for me.
