Missiles
The troops of a missile are confident for victory
Every time they fire, and when this approaches
A fine task has been beheld, how audacious!
The intercontinental ballistic missile
Will triumph over older forms of weaponry
As the troops of the Earth shall conquer.
They sped so abhorrently across the borders
To reach the point of invasion, so readily
Accepted by the aggressed, and how bolder!
The missiles accumulate for centuries
But the ammunition is needing
And folly has been arrested.
Can the forces of highest nature
Win for the whole of humanity?

If you really believe the number one priority of our government is the protection of our people, then the idea of being defenseless against an intercontinental ballistic missile or any other type of weapon system that puts us in jeopardy is not acceptable.

Lightning
A seasonal war weaponed
Persistent in the vault of heaven
Vajrastra, agniastra, varunastra..
Whipping of silvery flashes
Forked tongue chained in bolts
From the welkin..who the missile-smith there
Devas and asuras.. grand-pa explicates
Battling heaven flashes, splashes
Agonised breath clouds
Mercy-showers drum acclamation for devas
Havocked-pour thunderbolts for... asuras
Lightning squanders sometimes on earth
To up back with ammunition crimsoned
Why, who the missile-smith here

Fire or ice
Some say the world will end
when the Lord comes
and earth is speeding that way
to find its last day.
Whether by flames from God
or in a ice age
as some scientists say
where the planet will weather away,
ultra religious man doesn’t care
and choose suicide to go to paradise
with his finger
on the trigger of the missile
which might end it all
with a big bang.
[Explanation: Missile = nuclear \ biological\ chemical threat.]

National Missile Defense is of a nature to retrigger a proliferation of weapons, notably nuclear missiles. Everything that goes in the direction of proliferation is a bad direction.

We would take a little bit of money out of a huge increase in ballistic missile defense and put it in a place where it will do a lot of good, namely, in targeted pay increases to our enlisted personnel, particularly our NCOs and our junior warrant officers.

How do you tell troops who volunteered to fight for our freedoms that the country they fought for won't take care of them when they come back? In the time of war our troops and their families are supposed to be our number one priority.

A poor artist who wants to hide
He wants to express his grievances and inner feelings
on a torn canvas piece.
He owns a hairless brush and few stuck paint tubes with him
and he mix them with sweat and tears.
This incomplete abstract painting
(A toothless man cries and a ballistic missile enters to his opened mouth) .
he named as 'Poverty stricken'.
He search for a place to hide on the exhibition day.

For if the Germans do not help defend the West, American and Canadian troops must cross the seas to do the job, and I venture to believe that the troops - if not the statesmen - regard this as an interference at least in their own domestic affairs.
