Foreign War

I know my son was inside with their dogs And women dressed in uniforms who held Their sharpened knives and made my son undress. This is the way Americans fight war. Confusing thoughts enter my mind Combined with anger, sadness. ****. The Lord, is my child to die? If it is your will, please end him. How could the Lord let this happen? My sweet poor boy and his humility He is nothing but a toy to women. This is the way Americans fight war. My family weeps for my son. My country prays for their own sons. -Caroline Youngless
