War — #ThingADay 29/31
Mar 30, 2022
Below is the twenty ninth poem for the #ThingADay Challenge
War began today.
Another ember smoldering
in a world on fire.
More tragedy for the pyre.
Dickens was not wrong.
It was the best of times.
It was the worst of times.
On both sides, crimes.
Whether apathy at catastrophe,
or a blind eye toward reality.
The truth remains.
War yesterday.
War today.
War tomorrow.
War forever.
Too much war, not enough tears.
