BADHEART
Late in the evening across the crossfire,
I see the enemy dwelling, growing slowly,
tightening up bounds and trails, in-trails,
out-bound lanes, of arteries clogged:
Those who want to fight for a right we see wrong,
and vise-versa...
the glowing of battle calms me,
a tear lay rest upon my riffle during an engagement,
I can see the heavy tanks roaring in the distance engagement,
Bone crusher, 50MM cannon looking for a scout who is a camillion,
He can't see them,
There!
One with the earth, Can't you see them breathing?
with scopes who see good hearts beating,
Beating with vengeance,
I on the other hand grasp mine,
griping my chest plate,
tearing at my ribs to reach and irregular mishap,
I try to adapt,
the pain counter attacks...
Once more i hold fast in the distance,
face down, with guards, around asking am i still breathing,
With my grunts of acknowledgment, they once blended in
feeling the anger, resentment, jealousy...
I blame me as I watch the stars above glow and the lighting bug,
shrugs to a fluttered rest...
With a grimace on my face,
I low crawl, paced toward action,
i know i won't face, I pass out...
THUMP thump THUMP thump!!!.....
I awake in the back of an unfamiliar armor vehicle,
No loud booms from a 25mm cannon,
Or screeching, 50 caliber, yells from a barrel a flame,
Just noises and jokes of, he who fell during a battle Game...
As I ignore ignorance, I'm rattled with images,
of the firefights that i never engaged that night,
Instead the torment of ridicule,
Being futile and defective,
an unknown demon, dwelling within a soldiers chest,
I laid arrest, the reality of it all...
I'm a reject, in repair no longer of use,
Obsolete and reduced to picking weeds running Eran's,
no more fire in the hole, blast clearing, house raiding, track driving,
weapons firing, chases aspiring...
Just test; IV's and diagnostics, EK G's, treadmill test,
sending me into a faint spells of the night,
I failed to never quit!
All because of a....
BADHEART
My jobs is in jeopardy
the army's trying to get rid of me
cause the heart that beats
badly,
cause the heart that beats,
badly...
