A Winters night in Normandy (Free verse) by ciantu
On a boat to Normandy....
I think to myself, where will I go when I die
Would anyone cry?
-The screams of our troops dying on the beach.
-The sound of it would make you screach.
-The visions of dismembered bodies.
-It's a shame this boat don't have a potty.
-The smell of rotting corpses buried shallow in the sand.
-You can't forget the stench of burning boots.
-It is enough to make you puke.
-All I want is to go home.
-Uph.
-It's getting very cold and the light is getting bright.
-It is hard to believe I am dying tonight.
