POEM: FRAGILE Service...lessons I've Learnt by lordthunderbolt(m): 10:12pm On Nov 28, 2014
He stood on shrill shells
Empty with pains of the years
Shrill shells brought tears
Theatres of pain brought rain

Don't forget their thoughts
Opprobrium angels that hurt
All the fragile mock
For "our" love and the thorns


Fragile neck of service to the "land"
Here no "man" deceives no man
No snakes to picket the hand
All for the "love" of "our" land!

Bigots, despots and nepotic brethrens
Heartless surreptitious heathens
Fiendish friends for fresh smidgen
Vapours of love soaked in poisons


Tomorrow is pregnant
For "all"
Not some...not all
Brothers to all...friends to none

Our lovers...Our brothers
Immortal fathers
Deceitful mothers
All fragile in service

Shrill sweat screams!
Valour! Honour! And horrors!
In filth and glory
Fragile minds...same story

Our service. ..Our nation
Bitter legions
Fragile regions
Sold to sullen service
