RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: AFGHAN WAR
Woe Afghanistan
The Taliban is an ancient sect
Sharia law is primitive and cruel
We will oppose this way of life
We will oppose the Taliban rule
But we can no longer fight a war
That we could never win
Great armies fell on these grounds
And they will fall again
The Afghans must themselves prevail
For they have always known
While they oppose oppression
This oppressor is their own
Others cannot fight this war
As we have proven over the years
We gave our blood and treasure
We shared Afghani tears
But war cannot go on forever
When it depends on foreign might
We have reached our solemn limits
No longer will we fight
