gulf war

the sky is burning firey red
admid the deadly shroud of night
in the hills they are gathering
preparing for to fight
well the sky its lit up now as the tracers flies again
the tank rounds pound carves up the ground
the evel deeds of men
we must guard the innocent
we no we cannot hide
we must guard the innocent
until this war subsides
altough we are far away from home
admid the bullet and the bomb
morale is good as well it should
out here in the Gulf land of war.

this poem is based on the gulf war
a young soldier trying to make meaning why he is in the combat zone
with an invisable enemy.
