Though Time That Rusts Iron

Though time that rusts iron eventually becomes everyone's foe
We learn from the past from the long ago
Though for most of our lessons some price for to pay
We learn as we live it does seem this way
And a lesson for us in life every day
We do never stop learning as the wise one does say
But some aging men with power to learn from war history seem slow
Of the darker side of war they do not wish to know
Of since for their own sense of history they wage war without thinking of the consequence
They abuse their great power for lack of common sense
Though we learn from the past to all this does not apply
Some very powerful political leaders war history do choose to deny
Since they wish to create their own history
How arrogant some aging males with great power at their disposal can be.
