No
Man Can Find The War
Photographs
of guns and flame Scarlet skull and distant game Bayonet and jungle grin Nightmares
dreamed by bleeding men Lookouts tremble on the shore But no man can find
the war Tape
recorders echo scream Orders fly like bullet stream Drums and cannons laugh
aloud Whistles come from ashen shroud Leaders damn the world and roar But
no man can find the war Is
the war across the sea? Is the war behind the sky? Have you each and all
gone blind: Is the war inside your mind? Humans
weep at human death All the talkers lose their breath Movies paint a chaos
tale Singers see and poets wail All the world knows the score But no
man can find the war
