Theme: War

Synopsis: War is like a nightmare we have yet to experience. Why do we fear it?


Here laid the volleys and salvoes,

Filled with gloomy fumes and echoes,

Lost inside a nightmare—a despair,

Strange and rare, what more to be scared of?

 

For days, the earth was shredded and torn, 

By these steels and pieces of thorn,

Harrowed the impuissant crowd—

Imbrued their hands by the howl and gowd.

 

Though tanks and shoots may roar,

Dared not to sleep—they ran hither and thither,

As loud as their bawl, as silent as their plea;

They whisked them away to this nightmare of fear.
