Description
"For Some Guy's Son"
dedicated to Sgt.Jacob
Onward towards unknown glorious deed and angst among ruin yet to be created
In a street of a town; Of a life or two or a thousand.
(Seven guns firing)
Battles are fought in flame and concussion and on laps where sand and oil don't mix.
Where sand and oil don't mix. The gears of that world failing and frozen and pins that won'tt move and cries that aren't heard in the sand that is free
Free to mix with the wind for a time and escape a capture in oil and blood.
(Seven guns firing)
Like voices going on and on in the dusted air past imaginary vultures perched on satellites and looking down at a weeping soldier, hardly flinching a feather when it hears.
(Seven guns firing)

Nice words.
A great big 'salute' .... well written and thought provoking .... lest we never forget.
What a very evocative and beautifully written piece. Thank you.
Shades of Ray! Brings forth visions and emotions with a Ray Bradbury like intensity.
Powerful! A SALUTE to All who must bear the forever sorrows of war.
