"You're fighting for a just cause"
That is the justification
"You'll make the world a safer place"
"You'll protect your nation"
These are the politician's words
Spoken with passion and pride
Spoken away from the line of fire
Spoken from where warmongers hide
Men of empty rhetoric
These politicians never see danger
Safe on their leather seats
They never hear shots fired in anger
I am a fifty something family man with a passion for writing and I draw inspiration from those around me.
