War correspondent


There is not much to report

Big parts of me
Are restricted area

I could easily become a
Casualty of this unstable peace
Could be pierced by shrapnel of want
Could be blown up by the mines of memories
Buried deep in this passion-scorched earth

Ricochets riddled my amour
My visor is tear-stained
I do not see right
I will not go there

I lie low
I wait for a treaty
I hope for a peace corps

Dig me out of my shelter
Make me take down
This blemished white flag

August 2006

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
