[hometext] => Hope this doesn't come across as anti american , that was not the intention just a wake up call to the people who will blindly follow the bully into the playground without questioning his actions.
[bodytext] => You can take them to the border line
And lead them by the hand, They can travel far across the world, But they still won’t understand The reason for the outrage. Do they ever listen ? Do they even care? Will History still remember - when they're gone? Statistics twisted on the bulletin boards to prove that black is white. As we all stand by in silence The young men begin to fight In our name they bring home glory and a place in history’s ever changing book which only the winners get to write! What care the politicians if thousands lose their lives What care the men on high? The Generals never march to war But just smile sweetly when they lie and never answer questions as to when and how and why the cannon fodder was destroyed By ever so‘friendly’ fire. ‘My enemy’s enemy is my friend’ They strive to help his cause World peace is at stake, or so they say It’s a moral use of force. After all we’ve done to save the world Ungrateful ‘Old Europeans’ We need this war to feed the dream and the History that Hollywood writes. ©Rosewing [comments] => 2 [counter] => 147 [topic] => 41 [informant] => Rosewing [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => political )

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. ©
