it would be funny
if it weren't so sad
to see the situation
grow so out of hand
peace is negotiated
by military regimes
with mercenaries
fighting on a side
questions abound
of this legitimacy
as any impartiality
seems impossible
was this just a ploy
to cast negative light
with propaganda
rather than truth?
Can there really be any doubt?
I made a pledge to myself to write a poem a day for the entire year. Now to follow through. I preface this with a reminder; most of the poems written for this year long project will be done so spontaneously and therefore will not be edited. Bear with me on this. The project goal is to get them written over getting them perfect. Several times there will simply be the poem with no title. When that happens suggestions for a title will be welcomed in the comments.
I love the first verse and also the third. Thank you.
