war rhymes with
whore
allure
soar
roar
spore
more
gore

other words like door floor sore snore
also rhyme with war
as does four tour boar
some connection can be found with each
war's meaning is never out of reach
but it and they teach us to ignore
the either/or of war
we swore allegiance to peace and God
and our common humanity
but the lore of war
its sing-song prevails
until the dust is rubbed with death

Did you ever notice eat is in the middle of the word *d-eat-h?

it's like i've told the war worshippers from day one. maybe you're ready to consent to whoring out to state-sponsored random mass-murder for the obscene enrichment of a powerful few, and to renounce the basic divine dignity of your being, but i sure as hell am not.

it's a wonder i've never been beaten up for such blasphemy ...
war = religion.

Dan... I like this piece. I like it when you rhyme and also when you speak of important issues in your pieces.

Nice to see you the other day... it was great to hear you read, too! I should make it up to Baltimore more often!

Congrats on the new issue of Loch Raven Review!
