THIS IS WAR Kate Natishan

I shot a man today,
because CNN said
he was my enemy.

I saw a boy this morning,
bowed down and praying
with an M-16 at hand.

I watched a woman this afternoon,
wailing and screaming for
the bodies and blood in the sand.

I saved the world today,
I'm going home tomorrow
to see it on CNN.
