How should wars be prevented?

By Skyler SaundersPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

The magnitude of a blaze.

Some make the false claim

That war is business,

But can you name the

Dividends to be

Found under all the

Radioactive

Debris? Can you point

To the dollars that

Spring from the bombings?

As wars continue

To decline, we ought

To remember that

Rivals become friends.

Once a nation starts

Conflicts with others

It is like a pest

That needs to be slain.

Or at least its own

Capacity to

Make war must be stopped.

After the bloody

Fight, the nation who

Initiated

The war must show full

Capitulation.

That’s how you stop wars.

But that doesn’t mean

That they must begin.
