Le Haiku De La Guerre
carry me home boys
for the war is over and
I can't feel my legs
the mothers of war
gave their golden wedding band
and sometimes a son
on a war-torn field
stands a shrine for the children
where one shoe was found
he flew with eagles
on silver wings that he earned
in a place called 'nam
the heart of david
will defeat the goliath
that stands in our way
