Bombardment

Bombardment

A Poem by E.J. Waling

Bombardment.
Battlefield.
Undulating
terrain.
Ripe.
Ready
to be
assaulted,
attacked.
Generations
of skirmishes.
Altering
terrain.
Hills and
valley’s
adjusted
to time
and place.
Battle
lines
contested,
ebb and
flow.
Weapons
improved,
change
acceleration.
Battlefield
changing,
evolving.
Simple
assaults
morphed to
bombardment.
Mind
control.
Constant
senses
assault.
Pounding
to
submission.
Power and
control.
Battle
for the
soul!

A harrowing description of modern day warfare as well as propaganda that feeds into the cycle absolving mass murder. What have we become as human beings? To allow vile disingenuous rhetoric to hold equal sway to truth. Its corruption is evident by the insidious ideologies that permeate hateful minds. Who in turn come to believe it is their right to kill others they deem inferior. All for a warped ignorant cause as "the great replacement theory" and other such beliefs. If it isn't about skin color than it's about religion. And when those two reasons are taken away it will be about something trivial, because hate can't help itself.
