What if they gave a sudden war <br />no one would know what it was for <br />thus few would join as volunteers <br />as it takes gold to drown out fears. <br /> <br />And have you ever wondered why <br />some humans can't see eye to eye, <br />genetically they're born with hate <br />they would not win in a debate. <br /> <br />Thus, all that's left for them to master <br />is tricks to bring about disaster. <br />Backstabbing, lies and darkened streets <br />dishonesty's what mankind meets. <br /> <br />Their word is hollow, meaning zilch <br />at home they call these weasels knilch. <br />They tend to shift from town to city <br />to hide their ragged souls. A pity. <br /> <br />But it takes little time to see <br />for others, folks like you and me <br />that some of us do dwell in rot <br />but real people they are not.<br /><br />Herbert Nehrlich<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/real-people-3/
