Sense Sonnet - Acher

Unheeded

We went to Vietnam to fight
For freedom for We weren't sure who,
Cuz can't know when commies might
March on over red, white and blue.
We went to Iraq cuz spies said
Folks there with WMD,
Wanted We the People all dead,
And thousands there got dead - We be.
We went to Afghanistan cuz
Folks there would not cooperate
On bin Laden, who really was
In Pakistan, We compensate.

What fated fight awaits next turn?
When, oh when, will We ever learn?
