This is the first entry for War Of Words Season 2.
The poet in question entered for the Season 1 but he did not make the last 15 finalist.
Now he is back,
and back with vengeance.
He does not look like he will be taking prisoners,
cos now,
he said we should be prepared for war.
Title of Poem: Prepared for War
Poet: Prestige d WordSmith
How can a man born 2000 years ago prepare for war without swords and spears?
How can a man born in our time prepare for war without guns and grenades?
How can a house-wife prepare for war without mortar and pestle?
How can a baby in the womb prepare for war without kicking and boxing?
And then I ask again,
How can a man prepare for war of words without the tongue and the brain?
Cos the tongue without the brain produces words that are meaningless
and the brain without the tongue produces words that are voiceless.
War of Words!
Animosity, brutality in World War 2
But I'll bring philosophy, reality in War of words 2
And if you say that I am powerless,
I will take that as jocular
Cos I know that I am spectacular
"Practise what you preach",
this saying is popular—but how come most of our leaders defile the same rules they set out to guide us and unite us.
And if I keep on complaining,
I will end up exclaiming
so I decided to battle in this war to be the change that I seek.
Seek and you shall find me in this war.
Praaaaaaah!
