The War On Terror

Leave the soldiers in their tract!
No, no, let’s pull them back!
But it’s stability Iraqis lack!
But families want their men back!

Stay, and let’s develop their law!
No, no, let them rip and claw!
But we’ll leave them raw!
But it shows our flaw!

We must finish the war on terror!
No, no, it’s not our place, there!
But they leave behind such horror!
But they must learn what their place is and where!

And so our country quibbles on and on.
It’s enough to make me want to suck a tampon.
It makes me sit and wonder long.
Will this still be going on when I’m gone?

An interesting posting
Welcome to a democracy
The real question is…
What do YOU think?

nice summary. The only beauty is the poem itself.

Nice writing...I believe that the Iraqi's need to take on more responsibility for their own security...James
