[bodytext] => Did you vote for Bush? If you did or did not With Twin Towers you gave him All your support How did we get from there to here? How come being patriotic Just leads to more fear? How come these leaders seem just to be liars? How come? How come? How come? Your troops they are calling you We're dying here Mom You sent your best Your loved ones and dear And we anti-war Know they're not to blame They are just kids And all have a name It's your leaders who have failed you And how, and HOW! You gave them your trust And now, and NOW? Your troops they are calling you It's not like they said It's not full of glory Hymns and safe to bed People are dying, day after day People like me We blow them away We see them screaming and crying at us But we really, we really Don't KNOW what to say...

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. ©
