1917-2017

The men we lost in Europe,it destroyed
A generation  childless ,loveless,dumb
It’s madness making  suicidal wars

Women  lost their lovers so employed
Were made to live  in chastity like nuns
The men we lost in Europe,love destroyed

In our own heart love  dwells at the core
And like attracts what’s like itself to come
It’s madness making  suicidal wars

 

Does it matter if we’re nuns or whores
Life flows like our blood does when we’re  done
The men we lost in Europe,us destroyed

Should we wonder what our life is for?
Is this  what they call a practice run?
Is madness causing  suicidal wars?

Kings and Queens sat on  their idle thrones
While the poor fought till they were but bones
The wars we won in Europe,it destroyed
Do men  enjoy these  everlasting wars?
