RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: WAR IN IRAN
Nightmare Scenario
We answered the killing of civilians
By killing hundreds more
In a contest of crude reptilians
How should we keep the score?
They’ve closed the Strait of Hormuz
To us and all our friends
When you “win” this war you lose
It has no foreseeable end
So the price of gas will rise
And economies will fall
As toxins fill the skies
So Netanyahu can stand tall
Our alliances are on the block
Our people feel the pain
Our enemies will not talk
Our relationships are strained
All because we chose a war
Without a solid plan
We still don’t know what for
We may never understand
