 		"War - A Blood Bath Nothing More", by Adam S.
Copyright © 2001, Age 17

We, of the human variety, are considered to be intelligent,
We’re the biggest species, "gracious" and "elegant"
But is this something that makes us better than
everything else we see?
As I am here wondering, "would I rather be stupid and free?"

Mankind is at a dead lock, from which we cannot progress
We compare ourselves too much to others,
and think that we are best.
There is one thing we do, more than other animals;
that is to take more than we need,
You see my fellow people; with intelligence there came greed.

Due to the presence of self-indulgence,
we’d get what we want by way of force.
If this means to take out others, no matter,
as we get what we want of course.
It started with us just taking small thing, and then we wanted more,
It wouldn’t go any further is what our leaders swore.

Next due to a mutual situation, we started seeing others as a threat,
Then we started fights with other people, the ones we had just met.
The worst of course was not yet here but it was sure to come,
We thought it good to take land from others; the concept of war had begun.

For many years and for all sorts of reasons fights have taken place,
But none like that which we experience,
between those in the human race.
People often sit and wonder, if this "almighty" species will ever die,
The answer is "yes, it will end in war" and I sit here and
ask myself why.

Then I see its because of greed and war, "a blood bath, nothing more."
