ISAIAH, JEREMIAH, EXEKIEL, DANIEL, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: What is war
Last Line: Fail of a hearing!
Subject(s): War


BLOODSHED AND STRIFE ARE NOT OF GOD;

What is war
For;
Is it not a sore
On this life's body?

Yes? Although
So
Long as men will go
To battle fighting

With gun-shot,
What
Argument will not
Fail of a hearing!
