Soldier's thoughts
Soldier's thoughts
if I turn into wind on the field,
build statue of peace
with the bullet that took advantage of my breath
lift up my firm not too higher nor lower
dump it in the gab between peace and war
let it decay into unity
& dress my corpse with the skin of freedom
if I run out of breath on the field
tell my mother
to silent her moment of silence with food,
food that my country didn't serve me
if I fall on the battle field,
give this poem to my mother
as a flower impregnated with sorrys
tell her to forgive each pollen hanging on this poem
tell her, I found myself racing with the wind to survive
tell her the clock couldn't pause
when depression showed me true love
for quadrillion seconds
I recited the Lord's prayer
somewhere in my chest
