Victims of war
Dance on shards of pain
In life's empty battlefield

Ghosts dance in their head
Casting shadows of death
Across casualties of life

Children left behind
Blown to fragmented pieces
By smart bombs incognito

Crimson tears are cried
From eyes long blind
To blood shed for peace

Ears do not ring freedom
Flags are tattered and torn
Above bodies lying in a pool of blood

Really well done

IMHO--the images you paint with your words are painful but so clear. You've articulated something that I guess many of us are feeling right now. Thank you. :)

I love it

The 4th verse is about as powerful as I have ever read.

As time repeats itself again this poem is a good reminder.
