War in pieces

 

By Fly



And she began like a thunderbolt
There can be no holy wars


Wars stem from lack of information
Peace cannot be kept by force, only achieved by understanding


She Who Speaks With Burning Wind In Her Mouth
Let the wind speak


Skywriting by word of mouth
I hear an army charging upon the land


The Madness of It All
Who set the Reichstag Fire?


Journalism reports facts
Poetry spells the truth


Peace comes of communication
War is a twelve year old boy With no arms


Peace sells but who's buying?
War days without plan, grasping scents of death


War, no matter how necessary or justified
Is a crime


What's so civil about war anyway?
Who would Dante consign to the ninth circle of Hell in 2006?


Poets are piercing Blush, the mad dogs
I have filled my pen with a silver bullet, whizzbang


God wants ME to be Prime Minister
God wants ME to be President


Make assassinations not war
Each one in the name of it's God


Come you masters of war
Even Jesus would never forgive what YOU do


War to end all wars
It was claimed the war had ended, it had not ended


Only the madman is absolutely sure
Do not move


You have caused this war by your excessive zeal
No poem for annihilation


War huh, what is it good for
And monkeys make sorrowful noise overhead


Using war in an effort to attain peace
Leaves communities in pieces


Are the Faben works still entact?
1941: Nazi invasion of the Soviet Union in pursuit of oil


World peace: most noble goal of humanity
Goldenhair, I hear you singing a merry air


Manners are from earth and water, they uprise out of hills and streams
Ethics are born from agriculture


If only church were like a tree
Sin; they nailed him to the tree


2006: began investigating causes of war
To oppose same


That corpse you planted last year in your garden
Has it begun to sprout, will it bloom this year?


Utopia or Oblivion
And bones of slaughtered men Lie bleaching in the sun


War begins in the minds of men
In minds the defense of peace must be constructed


War is peace. Freedom is slavery
Ignorance is strength


Stink of death, sewage, garbage in the bombed city
And babies squealing like eagles


No substitute for committing peace
Wars are like traffic accidents


Difficult to get news from poems
Women die every day for lack of what is found there


Peace is when you get along with other people
The rhythm the rhythm and your memory in my head


Peace is an agreement to end a war
Dispute o'er sovereignty, territory, resources, religion


Clouds and the war wind whirl up
Grass roots tighten around white bones


No trace of previous war
Peace as a state of perpetual love


Tsar Lazar sits at the evening banquet
Peace as food for thought


War inspires fear and hate among people of nations
Peace is happiness and joy


World War disputes, secret treaties
Economic and political business plans


There is no way to peace, peace is the way
Like the shining calm of rivers and the sea.




Rhythm
You be annihilation


War absolutely
Garbage banquet
Peace sits piercing Blush, God


Come end
Only buying? War war of ME
Force, you can grasp scents in your Mouth
News for It all


Excessive bleaching war
Peace monkeys of humanity
Goldenhair, trace 2006?


Poets comes in oil
World territory
Uprise out of shining slaughtered information
Peace, sorrowful move


Burning Lazar
Necessary madman and religion


Clouds forgive
Prime poem peace
And Faben civil wars
It bombed
And whizzbang


God
Economic same
Agriculture


Without streams
Ethics peace Wars war
Inspires earths perpetual slavery
Ignorance entact?
1941: army people
The him of peace for bones


Hell traffic achieved by President
Make assassinations
Calm stem to substitute defense of food
Sewage state of the word resources


Silver peace in men
Minds with every tree
Sin; garden He sells Wind
Must to the air


Manners poems each year
Have to Lie by a tree


2006: death
War bones of ME
Hear hate among my babies
Investigating truth


Peace whirl up the old agreement city
And war is crime


Charging union
No matter which Minister
God one War thunderbolt twelve of Oblivion


Peace pen noble goal and happiness
Her fear communities
Reports bullet, sprout, you born from mad rivers


How sovereignty?
Peace huh, accidents
Masters and eagles


No squealing pieces

Are justified
Spells peace: causes like land


The love
Tsar death, rhythm
War o'er an the
Soviet corpse War
Invasion lacks men
War zeal
Noise overhead

Using memory in my merry bloom
Planted Reichstag Fire?


Journalism wind speak
Skywriting roots
Evening Nazi sea
Only lack name
Grass constructed


War people of nations of war
Even Jesus is political


Utopian pursuit of ninth
Women like the boy
Thought?


War wars
Wars wind
Dante begins with dogs
Still the committing of
Peace is business, war
Dispute, secret treaties communication with
War arms


Peace disputes of understanding
She mouth
I be peace
Leaves Freedom previous war
Peace like she Madness
And your war water, church singing to the sun


War minds and plans
There is strength
Stink Speaks with claimed a circle they nailed


Difficult hills will holy facts
Poetry, joy
World
