"Oh well" is a haunting ghost...

Young men join the military
To fight
Fight

Cursed is he who does the work of the LORD
Deceitfully,
And cursed is he who keeps back his sword from
Blood
      
And ashes are soft
Candles glow
Jesus sees

Torn tortures blood of the saints
In decibels of a calibre
Even a mass of death, would hear

The collective message is war
Cost of blood to purchase ears so great
And the mass ignore
Pen strokes the eternal hour crumbles to
Nothing can win, suicide gave in

Chosen ignorance
Treats with death
Death rages and complaints find no place to worship

Cursed is the larger soul
Oh, the weight...
Patient is Hell,
Open to wait...

Jesus sees
Infinity
---------------------
it makes perfect sense

I am Happy me...

I really like the message this poems sends. The one who doesn't do what everyone else does is doomed to be an outcast. I could be wrong, but thats what I think it meant. Nice write.
