The Acoustics of War


 


who will mourn


who will cry


enlightened mass


do or die


in light of day


in fields of war


death a knocking


desiring more


metal traded


mother’s tears


broken dreams


childhood fears


nights to dream


of baby blue


little boy lost


who really knew


traded youth


fuel to buy


the eagle’s head


hangs now to cry


who will mourn


in hallowed halls


not I, not I!

A ghost crouches, wan and so tired, in the Halls of Montezuma, his fist raised high, and a spectral tear runs down his cheek for a battle never really finished. Good write, my friend. A long long hurt runs deep behind your words.

So few care about the realities of war because they live in safety and have lost no one. Your portrayal is stark and heart breaking. Victor
