There is something about war
That heralds peace
Something about
The spill of blood
That blesses mother earth’s womb
Something about
A death scream
That is music to the ear
Something about evil that spells good
Something about sorrow
That begets joy
Something about night
That is brighter than day
Yes, something about death
That nurtures life
There is something about
Serenity that haunts the restless
Something about life
That heralds death
Something about day
That is darker than night
Something about joy
That moans with sorrow
Something about good
That smacks of evil
Something about charity
That enslaves
Something about freedom
That enchains
Yes, peace sells
But who’s buying?
(Inspired by the album “Peace sells … but who’s buying?” by Megadeth)


Just skimmed through to see what song inspired this…
I guess its true for the most part. Not bad.
Nice.
One word. Striking.
Nice poem! Majority of which is true.
Reminds me of the fact that Doctors only make money when people fall ill and generator merchants only sell when there’s no light.
And I’m beginning to wonder…@esosa …it seems your poems are always inspired by heavy metal or rock music.
I like this one.
Nice work.
Lovely; I’m buying.
@esosa, that something is called “duality of nature”
BTW, am buying too…well done!
good poem- the time has come for us all to buy peace becos we need it badly
