A Vernal Look At War

In the wake of an eternal winter
Came the rest of a thousand men,
Fresh and bountiful
with metal to spare

Casings hold a name and a moment,
Fresh daisy's spoke the full memory.
Buddings sprouted from barrels
Of rifles so bare

Cultures from every chunk of the earth held trees in their guts,
No lumber jack in sight,
Just interconnecting care

Prisoners share their secrets to pigeons like best friends

Passing the secrets on

But for a moment

For a measly moment

we were all one

The color of your skin and the place you were born in did not matter

The corpses of the world were mixed

A fertilizer that would make even the most racist and most fascist rulers

Look like mere dots on a map

This war bought the world

This war sold the world

But this war will never have it back
