No. 20, Mathematics Made Simple , 2008

When The mighty Empire of today is at war
Often on territory that it has invaded
It finds that its fighting men
Sorry and women too ,( lets not exlcude them
From fun that they could miss)
Are more equipped , better fed
Armed like giant Iron lobsters
Actions guided with high technology
The enemies have little chance
This is fair
In the name of democracy
The enemy can be at home
Even in larger numbers, yet the good
will prevail
A somewhat even symmetical warfare
Yet years go by and streets occupied
With barely a group of enemies in sight
'Mission accomplished!' but
It's happening more often
The devious 'insurgents' come from nowhere
Within our midst and cause havoc to larger numbers
One single roadside bomb an RPG ,incendiary
A human bomb explodes
Wipes out dozens of good men ,
It's all unjust
This is asymmetirical warfare!
