Peace Keeping

Four of us stood waiting, looking and not beleiving For we was in a foreign land making our countrys demands. monotumous air filled the silence which drifted over the land we are the lions and the innocent are the lambs. We got trained to kill to kill the avenging innocence of the broken man. Attrocity lies in war war is evil pursued by the innocent man. Its always the innocent who dies trying to keep order in thier holy land. Soldiers graves are made defined by mud and stand for those who fell protecting the innocence in the foreign lands god bless you because the devil already lives in the torn and unforgiving land.
