Yet few become a butterfly

There appears to be a fly
In my soup

Your service smells
Like dog poop

Each man on her husband's work crew

Premium Member Thank You For Your Service



I hear the flags whisper
Stiffened by a free wind
Blowing across a memory
Of friendship, of valor
Of sacrifice
Of freedom

And after that we had persisted,


Then into service finally enlisted.

Ohers will kill some of you believing
That they are doing a service unto, God ?

If not in memory’s service,
do we still write the words

To leave the past unledgered

To cheerfully service a crowd
Each roll in the hay
Brings shouts of, "Olé!"
And his bray, for crying out loud!

And saw how your discomfort grew
You knelt down to pray
And blew me away
Yet all you can tell me is, "pew"?
