Politicians count the cost, <br />But it’s money that matters, <br />Not lives that are lost. <br /> <br />Another father, <br />Another brother, <br />Another husband, <br />Another son, <br />But to them he’s just another gun. <br /> <br />Counting the cost, <br />Seeing what’s left, <br />To send another loyal soldier, <br />To an unnecessary death.<br /><br />Heather Foy<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-price-of-war/
