Battle Emotion Poem by Kimberley Keller

The battlefield is wet with blood
Tear teem & boil in a deadly flood
Pressing forwards to overtake,
Duty honor and namesake.

Rash actions and anger accumulate
Building, changing, and of late-
Break the dams and charge the gates
Swords drawn and sharpened, defying fate.

Yet in the shadows sunshine lights
An unknown war- a silent fight
For mental collection and composition
To maintain control and position.

For emotions cause nothing but increased trouble
Gaping wounds and castle rubble.
Logic and reason clarify
Asses all problems and simplify.
