Democratic Crusade by S.Hodgson, Orton Goldhay
Published Date:

Horns belch out with bellowing blasts
They call up great arms and prepare for great tasks
Noble nations and civilised people
Drive down opposition and supplant with a steeple
An army of standing and ferocious respect
Once played a part, in a world now all wrecked
Commanding a past with an iron gripped fist
It plunges a blade into a now feeble mist
Yet many questions arise of the nations intent
To command and to conquer
To heal and forget - or
To take all it will
And leave a shadow instead
Its numberless victims continue to grow
A mother, a son, a father in tow
A family, a nation thrown to and fro
Is this war for freedom - how many don't know?
