This blog will focus on political images I have found all around the Internet, though I will intersperse some commentary and quotes that I find interesting.

NOT LIKE TV
ReplyDeleteHow can my words communicate
The things that I have seen?
Civilians may well pose or prate,
Their souls as though pristine;
But I have seen the truth of it
Which I may never tell,
Deserving of my Maker´s spit
And getting sent to hell:
Death was ubiquitous around
In which we did take part,
While lily-lives I would astound
By tearing out the heart.
To see the limp and mangled thing
Returning from the void
A kind of stare: dead child, we bring
Terror in war deployed.
Dead bodies smushed upon the road
Because some Fedayeen
Were hid nearby; yet what we sowed
Can never be made clean.
Civilians back at home believe
The value of diversion,
But game-shows on TV deceive
While I have true immersion.
Therefore I know, if there be God,
Then I am most deserving
To go to hell, because abroad
In duty never swerving,
I served my country and I did
What I was ordered to,
The truth of which, forever hid
Nor will I tell to you.
