New War

New War

A Poem by E.J. Waling

New war.
Twenty first
century
battlefield.
Grey terrain
conquest.
Words
as
weapons.
Volley
after
volley.
This
way and
that.
Pounding
away.
Battle.
Battle
for hearts,
minds,
and souls.
Mind
manipulation.
Battlefield
shaping.
Relentless
fury.
Constant
word flow
directed.
Beam
focused,
hitting the
mark.
Indoctrination.
Blanket
narratives.
Smothering.
Mindless
minion
creation.
Zombies
engaged.
