Iraq

by wendy   Aug 22, 2005


I hate this war
the one in Iraq
i wish that bush
would take it back
our men and women
are way over there
and it seems that bush
really dose not care
despair and death all around
in the air and on the ground
your friends and family
are all waiting here
hoping that you all
will soon be near
life for us all will never
be the same
forever we will all
feel the hurt and pain
i wish that we all
could fall asleep
and wake to find
it was all a dream

    THE LAST TIME OUR COUNTRY WAS THIS SPLIT OVER A WAR, IT WAS THE VIETNAM WAR. IT TOOK HISTORY TO PROVE THAT IT WAS A BAD DECISION WITH OVER 50,000 DEAD.THAT DID NOT CHANGE ANYTHING. VIETNAM IS STILL COMMUNIST. I DO NOT SUPPORT THIS WAR. HOWEVER, I BELEIVE BUSH FELT HE WAS DOING THE RIGHT THING. THAT ALONE DOES NOT MAKE IT RIGHT. AS A COUNTRY WE WERE LOOKING FOR A FIGHT AFTER 911, THE POLICY OF "PRE-EMPTION IS BULL SH--T. GOD HELP US ALL. OH YEAH, YOUR POEM WAS GOOD BUT THE END WAS A LITTLE OUT OF SINC WITH THE OVERALL FLOW.BUT I DID FEEL YOUR EMOTION.
