Looking Back | Poem

 

Looking Back...
 

When nations throb in throes of War
And days of Peace are few and far;
If Mankind looked back over the miles,
We'ld hear no laughter, see no smile -
But see our oil slicks aflame
On Crimson seas in Hallowed Name
of Power for Power
And Death for Death...
In vain quest for Glory
'Til dying breath.
