#remembering war

What is war?

In the human psyche

it is the fatal flaw,

a perversion of the human mind,

using our greatest brains to create

outrageous threats to all mankind.

War is

the profoundest disrespect

for the sanctity  

of human life,

the ultimate in racism,

the collapse of morality.

War is  

the ultimate in criminality,

the ultimate obscenity,

the ultimate crime against humanity.

So shall we honour war?

and shall we now praise troubled men?

Or shall we remember what war is

and give true meaning

to "Never again"?
