RUMORS OF WAR
by Bill Kochman
11-08-2023
He said, she said, yes, it happens all the time,
Nations at war accuse each other of a dirty crime.
Genocide, infanticide and civilians blown to bits,
Lying leaders on the news, throwing political fits.
So many war atrocities, but it was the other side,
Bending opinion constantly, taking us for a ride.
Money at the center of it all, because profit is king,
Sorry lads, go & die, you are just their play thing.
Wars and rumors of wars, that is what Jesus said,
Confusion everywhere, what’s the number of dead?
Don’t you get tired of it, when will we see peace?
It is the way of the world, wars will never cease.
