At War (Digital Collage: NY Times Online)


At War

Things went from bad to worse
the inevitable conflict
sooner rather than later.
Distorted or ignored.

We should not be so quick to condemn
the military elite.
Ending wars is not easy.

Enemies at home,
Misguided and dangerous.
Fear, hatred: a  natural catastrophe,
With no human authors.

American against its government.
All were guilty or none were.
We should not be so quick to condemn.
