War - Invasion of Ukraine
Did you hear about?
Have you heard?
I have seen the news on the Tv
about the war that is happening. This is bad.
War it means the destructuon of innocent lives
War means tears
Tears to thousands of mother's eyes when their sons go off to fight
And lose their lives
War what is it good for?
Absolutely nothing
It ain't nothing but a heart-breaker
The thought of war blows my mind
War has caused unrest
Within the younger generation
Induction then destruction
Who wants to die? Oh
Has shattered dreams of many people
Life is much too short and precious
To spend fighting wars each day
War can't give life. It can only take it away.

Urgent, agitated tone with rhetorical questions and exclamations driving intensity forward.
Approximately 28 lines; falls in 16-30 range.

Primarily lyric internal voice expressing personal anguish; minimal narrative or dramatic persona.
