Leave Your History Books

 

Let the poets tell the story,

with their tales of war

and the plight of man,

of death and blood so gory.

 

Leave the writers fill their pens,

how life and times were then

Sharpened blades and

loaded guns

fallen dads and broken sons.

 

Let the poets turn the page

reflecting humans in their rage,

choosing sides as best they can

leaving death, the fate of Man.
