An antiwar poem
I like that last stanza about a false Flame of Knowledge with the books fueling like furnace. Talk about a strong symbolism!
Thanks! Sometimes these things just write themselves as the Libray of Congress does have a "Flame of Knowldege" on the top! So then that line then popped in my head.
As someone working as a part of the military-industrial complex, your poem resonated with me... Great work!
