When we started the war

It began in Daviess County.

We the persecuted ones,
we left New York
we left Kirtland
we left Missouri
we left Illinois

then came Utah, and Mountain Meadows,
but then we started the war.

In Far West, on July 4 1838, we said no more.
Sidney Rigdon, and The Salt Sermon.

We warned the Missourians,
what would happen,
if thy continued, 

then, we burned their homes,
and destroyed their goods

Because we said, no more

Now we are alone at Hauns Mill,
because, He said no more,

They are My children too ...
our homes destroyed, because,
He said no more.

Now we learn at Liberty Jail-Temple
to say no more, and learn to serve and protect

This, then, his way, now.

Then on, to be alone, 
no more ...

I love to collect thoughts. I would love to collect some of yours, if they are mindful and respectable.
