Peacefully at War

our wars are over
we no longer 
have to sacrifice
the space on our bumpers
or cover our trunks
with yellow ribbons

peacetime now
no need to 
support our troops
with stickers and flags

peacetime for now
no more moments 
of silence before games 
or cell phones for soldiers

our wars are over
no more rationing 
or restrictions of
our anti-war sentiment

we are at peace now
at least until the next 
as we are best at being
peacefully at war
