Undrawn Sword

The Undrawn Sword questions.

Must a weapon kill to have lived?

Is Victory the measure of greatness?

Will killed-most be the brag of our deeds?

What do last standers stand for?

The answers mark graveyards.

Stonewashed rivers of tears.

The Fallen are not celebrations.

Widows and orphans miss them.

The bugle plays sad and lonely.

They sleep through Twenty-One shots.

Undrawn Swords save lives.

Turn them to plowshares and sow more than weep.
