Whatever the answer might be
We might be able to do it all

World wars
Wage against the innocent, making them
Wish there was more,
Wish there was much more;

Worrying about everything,
Weary of the outcome, we
Welcome the end, though
We never admit to as much;

Worse off are some,
Wednesday is just another day of
Weakness to them,
Where suffering is all life-knowing;

Wherever we might
Wander, through life,
Wholesome spectacles
Welcome us not;

Wonderful
Weather we're having,
Wet feet and drenched heads
Wobble from side to side;

Work for us all, one
Way or the other,
Welcomed or not, the
World forces it upon us
