Military Might Poem

Military Might

The arms race begun long ago,

Yet it still deals us a heavy blow.

Billions of dollars over the years

Is spent to calm all of our fears.

We build up our military far and away.

Are we much safer?  Who can really say?

Much talk perpetuates this intense race.

Leaders and the news praise our weapons base.

Underneath this system, I see a different light.

There’s much more to a nation than their military might.
