If You Love War

If you love war, then you must love death too, 
equally as much, for such brutal acts of terrorism 
destroy the hearts of millions and cause them a lifetime's 
worth of agony. Whatever drives you 
currently to tipping point, will cost you double in 
humiliation: You won't be remembered so much as Gods, 
but of savages, scavengers and outcasts, 
to be pitied and mocked. How much should we charge you 
for the cost of a human life, when all is said and done 
and war is through and you have nothing at all 
to show of it?
