[bodytext] => It was quite predictable it was going to end this way The politicians saying what they felt they had to say And it was always someone else who was going to pay Sad that it's always the same games politicians play Didn't they see how important it was to get this right? Not make the same old knee-jerks, searching for a fight? It makes for such a tragic end and such an ugly sight When political muscle means the brainless use of might Did anyone really think they could fight them over there And ensure no danger with a war so unfair? Is it not obvious that you create a new cause in that lair? One to last generations. But perhaps they don't care... As long as the political words seem right As long as he appears a presidential sight Not that he ever needs to fight Or that to the young he brings everlasting night [comments] => 0 [counter] => 148 [topic] => 41 [informant] => steeleyes [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => political )
