WAR AT PLAY


WAR AT PLAY

From the ashes
We are reborn
Like Phoenixes 
Bright and 
Magical...

Within us
We have
Power
To wield 
At will.

We seek no 
Battles
No war
Is on our minds...

Yet we are
Struck
By man-made
Lightening
Destroying 
Our lives...

Still, we rise!

Little do they
Know
That by killing
And plundering 
Our souls
They create
New wholes...

These, once 
Peace loving
No longer 
Are so
For who won't 
Avenge
Destruction 
With destruction?
Pain with pain?
Torture with
The same?

Yes we arise
From ashes
No longer just human
But
We now are 
Beastly warriors!

Not worthy
To be among
Humane kind!
