I Refuse Your Pride….
Refused to die in your fucking war,
ran away and hid, closed my eyes.
You won’t tell the truth, what it’s for,
why do leaders live out on their lies.
You called me a coward, I was afraid,
it’s a bloody basic instinct to live.
Look at this world what you’ve made,
it’s a hundred thousand war narrative.
Political murder to achieve your wealth,
bodies lie rotting all over the globe.
Bits of people blown apart by stealth,
all you want now is a murder strobe.
Why is man such a murdering beast,
then calls a Doctor to assuage his guilt.
Can’t we be honest with ourselves at least,
admit that it’s a horrible place we’ve built.
This is my horror story firmly stuck in my head,
shown by a wonderful media who take us for a ride.
Truth is countless millions by man’s hand are dead,
we can’t shrink rap murder in national pride.

I do not...,
disagree what you are saying here, one little bit! Shrink-wrap is with a [w]. Unless this is a pun intended? ~ Gee
Thank you,
Thank you and the pun was intended. Regards Roscoe...
hi Roscoe
As with Gee... I agree 100 percent...
All in sympathy with the conciencious objector...
Seems to me that governments have wars in order to cull populations... not to mention the greedy and power-seeking elite, who encourage them in order to promote their own interests.
I just wish every soldier in the world would refuse to take up arms.... but maybe that's impossible, as there are those self-made soldiers who so badly believe in what they are fighting for (those religious zealots, for one example)
There doesn't seem to be an answer for peace while the human race is so divided into boxes.... and we seem to be such a violent species on the whole...
great write, love it
love judy

Thank you,
Thank you, I feel sorry for soldiers because their either forced to fight ( conscription etc ) or i believe they're brainwashed. Maybe someday we'll find an answer. Love Roscoe....
