ETCHED AND SKETCHED

ETCHED AND SKETCHED

You have been etched

Sketched

Outlined

Drafted

And

Defined

So fine and true

Described

As the best teacher

Explained and defended

Enlightened

Man and their ways

Wolfs ways wins the days

Portrayed

When it has all been untrue

Presented as callous, cruel

A killer

Yet man is a killer too

Is that justified?

When he gets away with it too

He does not kill for truth

He kills for the thrill

He calls himself a warrior

What is a warrior?

A real true warrior

A warrior that fights

Stands up for family

Against their foe

Oh woe

The despair and misery

The calamity

Catastrophe

That has befallen the weak

But there is strength

Strength in their numbers

They are the pack

The warriors
