Sense Sonnet - Steamer

 Wars Wage On

Decades ago Ike warned us that 

Industrial/military

Was where the true power was at,

And now today that truth still be.

The more the war, the more big biz,

The more the money the haves make.

The have nots suffer more, that is

Just the way that the dice does shake.

Powerful exploit powerless.

Threat of all out nuclear war

Turning to real is now best guess.

Powers for peace convince no more.

Eisenhower like warnings be

Just in peace seeking poetry.
