In The News-Afghanistan etal


Afghanistan etal

Why do we endorse a war
where foe or friend are hard to bare…
where leaders and civilians
say go, but leave our money there?
How many more brave soldiers
must die on foreign soil,
when those who pledge to kill us,
when hurt, merely recoil?
It’s our land that we must defend,
so here, let’s make our stand.
Malevolence pervades this world…
secure our borderland.
