Diary of a Soldier - World War 1
Surrounded by mud
our feet make love to the surface
the bullets kiss us, the bayonets hug
our intestines and the blankets
cuddle with our cold, decaying corpses
we write...

Premium Member Shadows Reborn Each Morn
Shadows detach at dusk to sneak silently away 
to roost together like bats in rookeries,
hanging upside down, wrapped in black mantles, gossiping.

The Poor Wretch
Sluggish suppurating symbol of disgust,
Dragged wailing into a reproachful life
Child of wrath and sloth and lust
All she will ever know is
Strife

Curdled flesh clings to a...
