Len Gasun Poet Sonnet

They Say He Is a Loser

They Say He’s A Loser

They say he’s a loser and repeater
But he ignores them and stays in battle
He’s really a brave army and trooper
For him, to die for homeland is noble.

He keeps on going to war just to win
His filthy face and wounds are washed by rain
For him, to surrender is a great sin
Fate is cruel… but sweetest to endure pain.

They say, he will never be promoted
Bound in battlefield just doing duties
But to fight for freedom is rewarded
Priceless joy for him, then promotion's kiss.

Most of the time, losers are the champions
Once they never give up striking irons.
