Tired of War
Dec 29, 2022
My parents survived genocide.
The weight of a militarised brutal existence resides in me.
I saw it in another,
on the other side of the spectrum
and our worlds collided.
He was a militant, raised in elitist militancy — of the worse kind —
and I thought
maybe he is tired of War, just like me…
but I was wrong.
They want War. It is all they know.
It is their ethos. It is their ideology.
No olive branch extended a million times can change that.
And that is the difference
between good and evil.
