MILITARY MADNESS
by Bill Kochman
12-08-2016
Why is it that the governments of men,
Always think that war is the solution?
They do not like some foreign leader,
So they work towards their dissolution.
Just to satisfy general world opinion,
Diplomacy gets a half-hearted endeavor,
But then tempers really begin to flare,
Berserko threatens with nuclear lever.
National economies have been destroyed,
As millions upon millions of people die,
Someday the warmongers will be silenced,
When an angry God firmly asks them why.
