Collateral Damage
The primary
target has been destroyed,
By a
surgical strike designed to leave
Blasted and
charred ruins for those who grieve
To pick
through, for all who couldn’t avoid
Being
reduced to statistics, a body count
On the
evening news. Strategy is clear,
It’s the
brutal diplomacy of fear,
Leaving far
too few remains to amount
To complete
human beings. There is concern,
International
stock markets are falling,
With
speculation, futures are stalling:
How many
losses before fortunes turn?
The enemy is
easily identified,
Being those
barbarians on the other side.
D. A.
