Humanity has struggles that have run through the ages,
Diseases, grief and the earning of wages.
But it's not just economics that can make us so poor,
As anyone can tell from the hell that is war.
From completing your recruitment to reaching the frontline,
You could die from a bullet or stepping on a landmine.
As brave as that is, I consider it a waste,
When our leaders don't learn and repeat invasions with haste.
But even so our veterans should be remembered and thanked.
Especially when too many come home and walk the plank.
Rather than treat them like scum anymore,
Don't hate the warrior; just hate the war.
