Va Tutto bene?  


They say that all is fair in love and war, 

Yet Augustine did not agree, nor did 

That good Aquinas all things not forbid. 

When first we seize desire to explore 

Such eloquent excuses, we deplore. 

Oft that expansive battlefield amid 

The innocent that stand to underbid 

That one thing keeping us from distant shores. 


Thus far we've searched without a goal in mind. 

Did Cicero know that for which we seek 

In banning wartime actions? Do we find 

We halt our deeds for that which we assigned 

Necessitating souls to be not meek? 

In this discussion I cannot define.
