Five years too many

A war free from government

arms trafficking

arms manufacturing

abusing power

and position.

No, you’re not America

to use your toys

enrich your friends

driving up their stock.

You’re not America

to use your money

put our soldiers

unprepared, at harm’s way.

I want my money

to go to education

and health care.

End it!

End the insanity

that tells anyone

anything good comes out of violence

and the conflicts

in the Middle East.

End the petty wars

and the seemingly necessary ones too.

Use your energy on something constructive.

Show me you can function in peace.

Show me you have other priorities.

End it

End the war

End all war
