Throughout Time

by David Lester Young — Read all 1,103 poems by David Lester Young

Born to serve as Pawn Peace, in "Thank You For Your Service" being lifetime repeating anguish; my cross is yet to be buried, but it carries the burden of carrying it, as an American living life's, PtSD.

Thing about being a Pawn, you never live it down. It stays with you, killing the insides with tears that never fade, dry up, or go away. It seems the hallow part of life at birth, becomes hollow caste part of an adult expendable existence.

The reality is that words are Societies cheap condolences, to relieve the guilty, who never stood up, but capitulated that Chess Game that make human lives expendable in crosses lining eternal cemetaries.

Short, poignant, and profound.

Patriotism gone awry when naïve young men are disposed of in the meat grinder of war by the wealthy and connected leaders thinking they are doing good by preserving profits and power over the lives of their own citizens. What a waste. What a shame!
