What Is War
What is war if not a culling of humanity;
a methodology guaranteed to impact growth
preventing starvation in an overpopulated world.
What is war if not an investment in economics;
yet, a depreciable asset in accumulated loses.
What is war if not the nightmares of mothers
who grieve for sons or daughters who suffer no more.
What is war if not the fuel that ignites passion
not extinguished by previous war, rekindled again.
What is war if not a culling of humanity;
when extinction becomes evident.
What is war if not the end of humanity.
