Memorial Day Poem by David McLansky

Memorial Day



A soldier in a pointless war
Stands his watch, a useless chore,
There to guard, to hold the line
Of politicians drinking wine;

After pictures are forgot,
In jungles, deserts, left to rot,
Their bones melt in the sandy earth,
They're compost in their final worth.
