Distinguished Writings
NOW IRAQ, WHAT NEXT?

Copyright Roger N. Taber 2006

A pile of rubble, all that's left of a home
once lived, once loved

Bloody bodies and belongings, scattered
like discarded toys

By the road, angry hands make light work
of planting bombs

In hearts the world over, politics on trial for
crimes against humanity

At whose grave next, left kneeling, asking
bitter questions?

On the head of whose leader next, heaping
a rage to live?

To whose God next run scared, praying any
future mark us well?

No matter history next re-written, in vain its
books kept clean
