War Pigs

War Pigs

A Poem by Pete
"

The savage in man is never quite eradicated. - Thoreau

"
Happy dirty pig in the mud stock photo ...

sick, sons of b*****s
wearing their hitler moustaches like pig snouts
smiling sinisterly
proud of themselves
making war like madmen and puppet masters
playing it like a game of chess

turning a spit, roasting flesh and souls
cooking it like bacon
risking not themselves but enlisting others to do their feverish, twisted, inhumane bidding
who the hell are they
nefarious b******s

Author's Note

"The very dogs that sullenly bay the moon from farm-yards in these nights excite more heroism in our breasts than all the civil exhortations or war sermons of the age." - Thoreau

I just watched a PBS documentary on Hitler and Nazi Germany last night! In one of his first speeches Hitler declared, "Long live the Socialist Republic" but later he rounded up the socialists and had them exterminated along with the Jews. That's how people like Hitler come to power, feed them their dream until they choke on it and it grows into a global nightmare. He idolized Bonito Mussolini and fashioned himself after the fascist dictator. We must never stop believing there is right and wrong and seek to follow the path of enlightenment made clear by study and observation. An excellent write, my friend.

It seems we never run out of warmongers. I fear the next election will put some of them in power.
