Mujeeb Jaihoon delves into the manipulative nature of war and peace, critiquing how the powerful play ‘jackal-games’ at victims’ cost.
War is great business,
Mocked the mongers.
Peace is greater,
Poked the politicians.
Destruction is fun,
Teased the dealers.
Reconstruction is more,
Roared the builders.
Bullets, bombs, ballistics—
Business couldn’t get better.
Bridges, banquets, and brokers
Benefit, sweet-coated as Peace.
Victims’ tears have no end,
Neither the tyrants’ profit.
In the name of war and peace,
Vultures play jackal-games.
