Yes, the war for oil <br />many tempers on the boil <br />stay on homeland soil. <br /> <br />And soon it happens <br />that axis evil countries <br />blow up their neighbours. <br /> <br />It is ordained then <br />that terror bombs will soon rain <br />on peaceful people. <br /> <br />And if they do not <br />the world will wait a decade: <br />New SUPERPOWER. <br /> <br />Too late then buddies <br />as billions overcome you <br />an ugly slaughter. <br /> <br />Before we die though <br />we will regret decisions <br />of doing nothing.<br /><br />Herbert Nehrlich<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-future-haiku/
