Poseidon

out of the warring ocean of people
he walked facing the call
of the rainbow blue sea
a new war begun
the sun sags
for the warriors
temporary return
to songs unsung
and tears unspun
there are no heroes in war
just rivers of blood, grit and tar
to kill or be killed
to still or be stilled
so the unsuspecting wives with their children
may in a fit of calmness sleep
while the rave of war runs deep
deep in the sorrowful streams of time
olive branches and spears
camouflage your name
mutated babies, half fish, half man
napalmed
while warring horses
and stoic stallions
rise like the moons
unwaved challenge to release
the quiet and unassuming rage of peace

Painting by Knut Kargel
