I stand in the middle of carnage
I see bodies and people in mourning
I think to myself what happened to the pointman
Where was the advanced warning
Then I realize the situation that I am in
This is not combat that was 30 years ago
Then shock sets in and the grief begins
Then I realize this is a new type war and we must win
We're fighting for our most valuable resource
The lives and future of our children
It must be fought but fought with remorse
We must rethink our strategies and start again
We must be victorious but without the loss of a single soul
We will never know who is already deceased
Another Albert Einstein, madam Curie, or Van Gogh
Possibly the answer to world peace
The war must be fought without predudice and hatred
The only weapons are communication, understanding and love
Every life must be considered sacred
The battle flag should bear the symbol of the
olive branch and the dove
