crawling forward I seen it, its around.

A gas bottle blows in an orange blast of debris
While this occurs beepers still beep and lights flash
It’s a huge yard and there are many targets still

I Never Thought It Would Be Like This

I never thought to see a man’s bones glistening white.
Nor see disembodied limbs flying left and right.
I never thought to see mud the colour of red

We switched letters
For our girlfriends.
In case…...

Who flew by the seat of their pants.
Many would never return from war
While others survived by chance.

Their planes were mostly canvas and wood
Gasoline, bullets, bombs and poison gas.
Every pilot...

legion on the move,

all the things we used to have

eyes gone dry,

another trek through foreign dawn.....

see the henna hidden...

of the silent drone tracer lights
Three hours before the bombs first fell

Bullets bullets flying, hitting there targets from afar
Blood dripping from a bandage with looks of fear
Tiny tiny pellets within, exploding going through helmets
Snipers pinning down these hero's, to the ground

Liftoff choppers with red cross, yellow...

In the Corner

Always looking over my shoulder

The Big Eve
Tracer bullets on the night sky Aleppo seen
From a hotel veranda, I hear screams, but
It is the raucous laughter of too much wine 
Noon in Sydney and New Year festive
