Enemy To Peace

Who makes 'profit' from Peace, they say; who 

can stake that irony with raw onion’s return on 

refluent evidence; yet if ebbed away, it will still 
smell scented of money altho’ fail every litmus 

test in any sense - we’re better served using it 

next to prepare for winning all coming conflict 

And we let them sing their liturgy t' The Bench 

where measured wisdom is in currency of their 

convictions; there is too many of us for you all  

to hoist with our own petards they’ll claim, but 

we don’t see it such, giving Peace a Chance is 

a far better plan in a much-maligned strategy 

It’s then they will state, whomever pays wins a 

place upon the management team - and you’ll 

see vistas unimagined: tho’ we aren’t sightless 

their paradoxical claim’s an incongruous sham 

Humanity’s face disdains; and thus we see the 

whom, and where, this enemy to Peace exists
