This War will be Four

Cave painting of a battle between archers, Morella la Vella, Spain.

This war will be four

for if it were to be three

we would be forgetting

the Cold War

which was

unbearably hot

around much of the world

looking forward

such as is my disposition

I smell a conflict

that will put wars bygone into another

category from that which is

about to come

a war that will be more vicious

more global

more drawn out

than anything we have known before.

World War I

was supposed to

last weeks

it lasted four years

World War II

was supposed to

last months

it lasted six years

World War III/ The Cold War

was supposed

to last seconds

it lasted half a century
