[hometext] => A look into how TV makes war seem like it is OK.
[bodytext] => This poem is not about soldiers that are fighting the war and have fought for our freedom. But it is about the TV and the way we make the war seem like it is some 8pm series that runs nightly. A mini series. It is war not a SHOW! ---------___________------------ I'm the idiot of the new generation, I'm in line with active invention. Here's a fist to forward your evolution, Head full of ten o' clock education. Military action gives me justice and American solution, It's the headline of the baby in arms. Hand to hand darkness that shuts the curtain on this week's call to arms. Running runway operations, turning the machine, It's another vote of confidence to booming world war economy, Television ethic of crisis on demand. This is advancement, this is entertainment. Was it Iraq, or Kosovo, Korea, or Japan, Panama, Vietnam, Great Britain, or the Father Land? Can you hear the dream at night falling in the sky? Marching with God, throwing stones across the ocean. It's this week's topic of discussion, a headline of the past. It won't make an impact unless it's Armageddon. Nine shots to the head my God, I'm still breathing. Coming at you live on T.V.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
