WHITE FLAG

.

.

How do you end a war?

There are several ways

Total annihilation of the enemy

Grind them to dust, leave not one stone standing

Upon another in their cities

Another possibility 

Is to present such overwhelming strength

That the enemy surrenders in the face of such power

This is how bears and lions establish dominance

And control

But we are not lions or bears

We are humans that can think and speak reason

Yet we don't because resources are limited

This triggers our survival instinct to fight

For what we need and want

Only fair laws and a court can decide

How to divvy up precious resources

So our choice is

The law of Nature, red in tooth and claw

Or the law of human morality

Where might does not make right 

Because right is adequate resources for all.
