War as a Cure

by

DNA creates monsters

Monsters who seek expression

They find a valve

Irrespective of politics

 

War creates opportunity

For horror

And for its conquest

 

War creates Pacifists

Not monsters

Everyone should try it

First hand

Instead of watching it 

On TV!

 

War is not the past

War is now
