The Game of War

The Game of War

War is a game,
It proves that the worst loss,
Is a loss that was gained by a win,
The blood is shed,
The death is had,
Utter depression,
War happens over and over,
It never stops,
Peace is an illision,
War is greedy,
War has envy,
War shows wriath,
War enjoys gluttony,
War gains luster,
War provocks Pride,
War is made by Sloth,
Sins of 7 is what war represents,
And what war is Represented by,
Honesty is engolfed by deaf ears,
Unfeeling hearts,
And blind eyes,
War is words without meaning,
War is caused by love,
War is countined by hate,
War isn't good or evil,
It is a star that has reached its limit,
War doesn't care what, who, or where,
War is everything,
Power, strength, ability,
War runs the world,
Yet,
War,
Is simple,
But it repeats its self,
War is repetative,
What is war but a game.

I read this poem and it reminds me of the war we have going on in the middle east. Where innocent and guilty lives are being taken. Fathers, Mothers, sons, daughters are all taken from there families only to be seen in a casket or possibley not seen again. This poem comes across to me with a sad mood and seems to have a fast "beat" for such a poem. It might just be how Im reading it though.
