Artist's Description
THE ONLY JUSTIFIABLE WAR
Difficult for intelligence,
artificial or DNA-authentic,
to recognize the lovely truth of itself
in a mirror of blood-shattered history
smeared with ghosts and caked with grief.
The holiest most useful of wars
is not waged against infants.
Against flowers struggling to breathe
life into dreams unmindful
of colors of flags. Or skin. Or death.
The only justifiable war is the one to end
whatever ignorance inside you
kidnaps, rapes, tortures, bombs to dust…
the sacred capacity for love or compassion
that makes existence possible at all.

At some point when I was a child, I saw a movie that featured the winged warrior horse Pegasus from Greek mythology carrying the hero Bellerophon into battle.

About Aberjhani
I was born and raised in the southeastern United States, then spent many years, while pursuing my education and serving in the U.S. Air Force, traveling around America and the world.

Artwork by me is featured on the cover of both books. My last 4 public exhibits were at the Savannah/Hilton Head Airport Art Gallery in Savannah, Georgia, USA, and during a cultural arts event in the historic Lafayette Square in the same city.

So beautifully done, Aberjhani! Humanity has the ability to rise above warfare, and it will. Humanity is more aware today of what it is up against and humanity will, at some point soon I feel say NO MORE WAR. I pray and hope we see it in our lifetime, Aberjhani. Happy 2024 to you! May we feel peace during the year ahead. May compassion spread rather than things we are constantly made to feel fear of.

Aberjhani's Official Postered Chromatic Poetics
Thank you very much LaVonne for visiting and checking out "The Only Justifiable War." I deeply respect & appreciate your choice to practice Love rather than hate. Be great if we could convince certain nations and organizations to do the same thing sooner rather than later.

Thank you very much VIVA. I'm convinced humanity at some point is going to stop relying on violence to solve differences between nations and individuals.

Did you know that in Revelation it speaks of a future where God will wipe out every tear and wars will cease I have immense faith in this promise…until then we can Love …even if others choose not to my friend
