Why War

This poem was influenced by the war in Iraq.
The world has its chaotic events,
It's never ending warfare on people,
Leaves the impossible thought that it dents,
And leaves the unwanted in our soul.

Blood that has been shed will fill our oceans,
For no one can comprehend what peace means.
Will anyone solve this dreadful potion?
Matter of fact its making the world lean.

Every part of the world now has power.
Countries got stronger, while others got weak.
The entire world now has gone sour.
Missing is the bald eagle's yellow beak.

Now everyone has to kill each other,
But weren't we all once sisters and brothers?
