Art

SunTzu wrote "The Art of War".
There is no art in war
no dark beauty
in ashes of olive trees
no gifts in debris.
The blood of innocents
floods the streets.
Survivors fashion coffins
of boxes.
Houses simmer with the secrets
of smoldering hate.
Mothers raise their arms
to heaven
and chant an ancient refrain:
Make art, not war.

Prompt: Art
