War Poem by Claude Simpson

Don’t you see that
World-power and world-force
Are fighting against each other?

We have war in the East;
War all over.

War in Afghanistan;
Turmoil in Syria.

Don’t you see
The nuclear upheaval
In Iran and North Korea?

Well, it’s timely approaching the last days;
The hypothetical end is like a colossal enigma.

Don’t you see that
People are getting right for wrong and
Mystery is all about the place?

Right now, hidden things are coming to light;
Awake! For what matter should we fight?
