New Leaders : Narrative Poetry

written by Poet : Paul McCann


   

There once was a coalition of the willing 

that struck out with an iron fist .

 They swung into action and destroyed 

many who were known to be terrorists . 

 A war against terror was waged and many stood in line

ready to do the job  .

 Young men and women with guns went on a mission,

who stood before the angry mob .

 

They took whatever was thrown at them  ,

 be it verbal abuse , a bomb or a stone .

 

Everyday the war continued in a place

 where life was always on short loan  .

 Each Christmas the leaders visited the troops

and stood with those who had give their all   .

 All the leaders praised their soldiers ,

and soon the axis of evil began to fall .  

The debt of war had become clear ,

And it was time to revamp the economy .

 Money makes the war go  around , 

and there was no choice ,

congress just had to agree .

 When election time came ,

It was the coalition of the willing that give in  .

Because new leaders had been elected

Who had something else to wage for and win .
