I.E.D.

I.E.D.

A Poem by Peter Truth
"

A short free-write about a typical subject.

"

You said
he had bombs, so you
dropped bombs to blow
of legs and arms.

 

Blood is just as
red as it was before,
but their countries

been blown apart

and so have we,

 

guess those markets
aren't so free.

 

War is the only

answer for some,

peace at the barrel

of the gun.

Brilliant. No..that market is not free. The price is written across ALL of our lives these days. Its only fair if WE are the only ones with overwhelming military power. Heaven help a country should they have any capability to make war. or oil. Very very good stuff.
