What use for children?

Send our babies in
posting C4 to trucks in secret places
throwing mortars under dusty wheels

Dark small hand
grime under chipped and broken nails
looking for candy
giving death

Child of mine child of yours
eye to eye dark and blue
whose eyes will be closed tomorrow?

It is surely a sad situation. I am not sure who to blame: governments who make us feel unpatriotic if we don't participate, or the manly urge to be strong and protective.
