This is a scary scenario that your portrayed well with your well=chosen words, Mark. It should make all wonder what part the media plays in it, too. Good job and thanks for sharing. Jan

If you join the military you agree to obey and do your duty and there is no room for anyone asking questions in this situation. This has been a bone of contention for many. There must be unity when we are in a war situation because if we are not united then our society will be fragmented and we lose. Sad, but true, your poem is food for thought, love Dolly x

Wow -- this is a very 'excited' write for the evening... I think the 'darkest' line of your poem, however, is that last one.... too many take too much for granted. Thank you for sharing! :)

Thanks for that factoid about 'false flags.' Your verse adequately matches the syllable format. For me, your last line is the most provocative and best. Often the news may be distorted, but not always 'fake news.' Illustration was a good choice too.

Good commentary on what the public is told/shown by the Media when it comes to North Korea or Iran's actions. Are those missiles intended to provoke a military response? Are Iran's scientists really producing high grade uranium again? The questions are being asked, but by whom? Rod

Nowadays journalism has been more than yellow journalism and fake news on TV is a common phenomenon, we ask no questions even at false war warning on TV; well said, well done. Write to inspire -- DR ALCREATOR
