Marching Orders (Free verse) by blackball
my men, my men, my men
we can do this together, i know we can
we've got our destination, our mode of flight
we have started but something has gone wrong
this phase has slowly taken over our lives
constant explosion of the mind
it refuses to stop and refuses to calm
"i hope everyone is feeling much better"
did i actually say that? have i been talking for the last three hours?
we're ok. let's sit down
take a breath...but
here
it
comes
again
unrelenting pain, an impossible depth
we can make it through
my men, my men, my men
this is nothing
soon we will land and everything will be fine
then we can be sane
it will be time to go home
time to take that walk again
time to be normal
