Listen to poem:
The Forever I Feared
The Forever I Feared
David J Walker
The Forever I feared
would last
Three years
Before I knew
The Army wasn’t really
Meant to be forever
Or was it?
Or is it?
As I try and write
It’s past explanation again
Where I am
Or have been
In the prose of perfect since
In the cadence of marching
Backward into
The perfect future tense
