War's Lesson Never Learned

A Poem

By Gary DavidsonPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

History taught as gospel in education,

Altered by each and every nation,

Facts manipulated for the masses,

By the elite ruling classes,

our so called protectors

History written by the victors,

All the secret talks and acts,

To alter the current facts,

Changing the consciousness of a people,

Hatred and fear growing deeper,

Turning man against his brother,

All on the word of another,

Brave men fight and die,

All for politicians lies,

Break away and be free,

There is no need for animosity,

Give aid to those who need it,

Rather than a nation bleeding,

Waging war for resources,

Instead of diplomatic courses,

Innocence doomed to die,

Because of a maps invisible line,

Why is this world so twisted,

If it ended tomorrow I wouldn’t miss it,

-Baphomet0-
