Poets, musicians, painters, sculptors, historians of all sorts, br Many express their feelings of war - in their work br Compassion for innocent lives being lost - only distorts br Their minds, frustrated by politicians gone berserk br br Love controls their hearts and their souls br This creates their work, into an art to behold br We feel what they feel, only try to conceal br For we know what is real, that our hearts will never heal br br War has been with us since the beginning of time br Young lives being lost, for no sensible cause br Politicians wash their hands clean of all of the grime br Place the blame elsewhere, for such grisly human flaws br br Before we set out to kill our brothers in war br From orders given by politicians seeking glory, caring not, br For innocent lives being lost br Let us confront our foe with the work of the artist we respect br And adore br Perhaps they will introduce us to their, - much-loved idols, br Then all the politicians, - we can literally toss br br 121706br br Dave Tanguaybr br
