A Parable Of War (Free verse) by Caducus
Squalls of fighting doves
Surge forward in a dry khaki sea.
Wave after wave tumbles
Crashing in to soft red rock canyons
Where boys on boys
Left a tide of men,
Where brothers in arms, in arms embrace
In a sward of scarlet dew.
The useless advance in yellow fog
Making eyes cry out drowned souls
Which fall to Hinnomâs plasma rivers
Where men become the cud of worms,
Raising the ground yet further from God.
I am a soldier of the King
A creation of God
A husband to a wife
A father to a son
And a brother to thousands.
