Iraq Is Not Our Enemy

A poem about the true enemy in war…
Iraq is not our enemy,
no threat in any way,..
so can someone tell me why we let
our soldiers die each day?

Sadamm is dead,
a hangman’s rope did that
his sons and partners,..
dead too,..
his country cannot conquer ours,….
so what is left to do?

No WMDS,..
they shoot Iraqis if they sneeze!
got kids and mothers on their knees
asking for somebody’s gods deliverance
from this disease…

Jails and prisons overflow,…

With young brown people that
are captured cause
they got no where else to go,..
nothing else to do but fight,…
rich people hand these kids a gun,…
teach them a song to sing,
give them a book that must be read,
and an allegiance they should pledge,..
tell them kill until the battles’ won!
and the enemy is dead,…

Sounds like America ya know.

Iraq is not our enemy,
our enemy is the sword,…
and all who raise and live by it,..
a quote from Christ, our Lord
