Wars


2013 image, Goa

Wars fought with weapons,
Terrified territories,
Should first end in minds.
Oh Ares! The God of war,
When will your lust for blood end?
:
:

Engraved in their hearts,
Are frozen tears, and the scars,

Visible in eyes!

Come ye poets, let us write,

Poetry amidst bloodshed.

  2. Wars are fought for vested interest , and in many situations Great wars were fought for women. Search Mythology or search History , there are ample instances. Poets do sometimes write poems right in the battlefield describing the attrocities and vulgar bloodshed.
