No but seriously this poem was very good and you do make a strong and clear point. Your rhyming is as good as always. You have great flow and consistance in your writing so it is an absolute joy to read what you write.
And you thought me a new word !
Well what can I say more than great job girl and keep doing what you do best =)!
"You tell me we are fightin' a war.
What exactly are we fightin' for?"
-Right from the start. This poem reminds me of Daryl Worley's song.. "Have you Forgotten?" Such a wonderful song. I recommend you listen, if you haven't.
"Let's face it, it's not peace if we have to kill.
We're forcing things on them against their own will."
-I agree with this statement.
"Let's take a step back and survey the body count.
Were we really hoping for killing this amount?
Is it really freedom or an excuse to destroy?
Are we killing for good or is it just a decoy?"
-Wow. I love this poem a lot. I agree with all your thoughts and everything. I really think that we should take a look at how many soldiers have been killed as well. There have been so many killed, and yet we keep fighting? Why?
I've gotta say, I agree completely with your poem. We all have our opinions, and I'm glad you stated these things, because I couldn't agree more with your thoughts. I don't really think that we're goign anywhere in the war today, but yet.. we keep fighting, but we aren't making any peace with anyone .. are we? It's almost pointless, in my opinion. But, war is war. and war can be bloody and many people die. and it seems to go on for years.. hmm.. nice work hun, i love this poem because you state your views, and nobody can take that away from you. great work. <3 5/5
