I wrote a poem about Iraq.

Iraq

Listen on! Listen on!
This is the truth of it.

Fighting leads to killing,
And killing gets to warring.
And that was damn near the death of us all.
Look at us now, busted up
And everyone talking about hard rain.
But we've learned by the dust of them all.
Bartertown's learned.
Now when men get to fighting
It happens here.
And it finishes here.
Two men enter, one man leaves.
And right now, I've got two men.
Two men with a gut full of fear.
Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls,
Dying time's here!
