A Day In Dong Tam Poem by Michael Pruchnicki
A Day In Dong Tam
Rating: ★1.6
Another hot day
he said
How hot
I said
Hot enough to fry eggs on asphalt
he said
No asphalt in sight
I said
About then the mortars started
and the rice paddy erupted
with blackclouds and falling dirt
Just another bleeding day in the Nam
he said
I got today and a wakeup
I said
Lucky bugger
he said

I guess if you were still breathing you were doing real good. I can really feel the atmosphere and environs of the place and the conditions in this writing.
