Here are a couple more poems.

[Raunch]

Veterans Day

I stand here among the black wall of death
slowly tracing the memories of my past

gazing at the reflection of my comrades
as we shed a tear of remembrance

I close my eyes and 473 days of hellish visions
flood the mental barrier that has stood intact for 365

I stand here among the black wall of death
and wonder if my son will one day

by an etching on a piece of paper
by the heart of his loved one

Fallen Star

It is the siren's song luring street urchins
from crystal palaces into cement cemeteries

It is the smell of rotten nourishment
replacing memories of sweet aromas

It is the laughing faces and pointing fingers
which replace the mothers' embrace

It is the reoccurring nightmare which is his reality
that makes him wish it was just a dream.

The first is very sad Raunch and very topical. I like your style of poetry.

[Raunch]

Thanks again.

I dont relly like poetry. But Raunch your poems are pretty darn god.

[Raunch]

Thanks fishtank. I try, but i am not very elegant when it comes to writing. I feel like my style is pretty easy to understand. Most poetry that i read i hardly know what they are talking about half of the time. Thanks again.
