Sense Sonnet - Acher

 Ever To and From War

The powerful choose to wage war,

And send the powerless to fight.

The rich get richer while the poor

Are sent for causes rarely right.

Battle after battle be fought,

Some of them won, some of them lost.

The fighting pawns suffer a lot.

Just surviving comes at a cost.

Those who don't die are wounded some,

In body, heart and soul and mind,

Some never to recover from

Continuous game of war kind.

The powerful pick merchandise,

The powerless to pay the price.
