because it's like a syringe
in the bloodstream
of the economy
because it makes boys
into robot-men
War is a wonderful thing
because it affords a chance
for the most foolish forms
of heroism
to be exhibited
because it proves which nation can most quickly become
insensitive toward the people of another nation
War is a wonderful thing
because it inspires scientists
to create technological marvels
like napalm and nuclear weapons
because it gives the freedom to lawfully murder
War is a wonderful thing
because the vague softness of kindness
is eclipsed by the focussed hardness of hate
because it's something we can all rally around,
really get together on
War is a wonderful thing
