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 nightmareโ€”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 crowdโ€”

Imbrued their hands by the howl and gowd.

 

Though tanks and shoots may roar,

Dared not to sleepโ€”they ran hither and thither,

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

They whisked them away to this nightmare of fear.
