Sooner or Later

Conflict coming
Sooner or later.
A vote and a stroke
Of luck for the hater.

Nobody being brave
Right now.
Nobody asking
When and how.

Barack standing
Alone on this.
I don’t blame him
For being pissed.

Outrage seethes
From every side.
Assad gets cocky,
Or tries to hide.

Nobody wins
In times of war.
How did they
Get this far?

Killing their own
Without hesitation.
What is wrong
With this generation?
