#85

 What was it even for, George,

the war?

Why did my generation

and the generation of my students

lose their freedom and many

their lives?

How did four airplanes

change the flight path of every near adult

with a conflict that Congress

couldn't be bothered to discuss?

What do you say to the women,

prisoner again in a homeland

that bares the lasting marks

of ravage?

Why have we been ravaged?
