Raging Wars
By coyote
When a raging war nears my mind I cannot gain peace by standing by, but I would dishonor myself by joining--I run.Drums beat steady and the bugle taps.I stop to rest; not long, for war will not end this chase.Patriotism is your reason...truth and might are your weapons...stupidity and death are your results.'Take my blade, you noble coward, refusing to fight for your country.Death to you who are afraid to fight'.Aye, death it may be, but a soul free from torment is better by far than to die for an unknown cause.Cam Rahn 16 Apr 1971 Written August 28th, 2001 © on Aug 28 2001 01:15 AM PST 0 • 9
