War
by Edward Z. / John Jay Middle School

Gray

with a hint of red

the grin of the young boy

in a uniform

he was forced into.

Sweating profusely

looking at the road ahead

while a leader

plots the next attack

on people he accuses
as the devil's helper,

but hope lays around the corner.

A leader
who tries to

stop

the killing

and not
make mass graves

with the loved ones
of a once
existent child,

now just known as a memory

in the ruff.

 

This

is

WAR
