no one really wins

clearly
nothing is clear.
the fog
of war
is thick, the dead line
the streets with more to come.
revenge
being bittersweet,
the blood
will run
until it's cold
and then
a strange peace
will settle in.
all of it temporary
until the next
generation
grows
and picks up their
weapons.
nothing changes,
as
survivors, press on
in a land
of rubble,
with bread
and water with years
left to weep.
