In ancient naval nautical battles
often with huge, heavily manned,
and armed vessels, slugging it out often
in great formations with numerous
fearsome, powerful arsenals, with awesome,
horrendous, even fiendish arrays of weapons
in applications, a la carte
war is after all, hell…
Greek fire was like napalm.
on land and later in the air atomic bombs,
noxious chemicals, even deadly diseases
are employed and with tactical maneuvers,
crossing the "T"
blitzkrieg and firestorms,
where entire cities are incinerated,
came to be,
It seems even being hateful
has become an art. apparently,
we have learned
how to perfectly destroy each other’s strength,
If we would have used our energies
to help cure each other’s weakness
we would be for us
and not fighting them, perhaps?
The science of war
we have learned well
evidently not
well, enough to know when to stop,
we must pay
and as the price continually escalates,
eventually we will learn
when to quit playing the game
or lose it all, for what gains?
If we lose our very souls
