Do you know what you're fighting for? <br />Do you think that you're gonna win the war? <br />Does it hurt when another mother cries? <br />Collateral damage as her baby dies <br /> <br /> <br />Do you think that your God wanted this war? <br />Please tell me, 'cause I'm not so sure <br />Why can't you just stop all of this killing? <br />You can do it today if you're really willing <br /> <br />Do you think that your God is on your side? <br />Do you know that there's no place for you to hide <br />Can you remember your words at the very start? <br />Where is your compassion? Where is your heart? <br /> <br /> <br />Looking back is this what you had planned? <br />Thousands of children's blood on your hands <br />Could you stop it now or has it gone too far? <br />Is it oil that you want for your gas guzzling car? <br /> <br />Do you know what you're fighting for? <br />Do you want to stop this stupid war? <br />Do you think that it's all about winning? <br />Don't think it's freedom that you're bringing <br /> <br /> <br />Why can't you just get our soldiers out of Iraq? <br />Give mothers their sons and daughters back <br />Will we ever have ' Peace in our time? ' <br />It could be the last mountain that we climb.<br /><br />Gordon David<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-picture-of-war/
