A Heros Story

A Hero’s Story

She was an old lady an Aunt I remembered well
Sitting chatting with my mother on the subjects they didn’t dwell
Looking at her face and into her eyes
I saw pain that could not be disguised

She’d speak of her husband sometimes
Who was dead those years ago her life spent alone so unkind
He had answered the

A Turkish Mother To the Kaiser -Ww1

How many sons 
  have we lost

How many demons
  have we found

How many graves
  must we dig

To make the ‘Fatherland’
  proud

The Plaque

1908
Last day at school for me
Some thirteen years Ive had
And Im going to be a farm hand
Just like me dear old Dad

Here now its Mr Peters
A silence falls over the class
'Registration' he says as he does every day
I am Williams and always called last

Boys first as always he starts,
I know it off by heart,
Abbot, Brown

Premium MemberOfficer Diary Entry Ww1

How many more?
How many more before this devil is fed?
A hundred, a thousand, does he ever get enough?
This existence is now becoming too much to bear
I don’t know if life’s worth what’s happening out there
Perhaps one day they’ll praise this as some honourable sacrifice
Perhaps it’s nature’s way of thinning life?
But so many boys now won’t

Premium MemberWw1 Battle Eyes

Explosions screamed
Flame and fire roared
Hell before my eyes
My mind panicking to absorb

Thunder cracked open the cruel sky
Rain hits so hard 
Bullets fly

Sensations flood through the mind
Mud splattered up, blood in my eyes

A mighty pain hits from behind
Hit the ground hard 
Then I die

A solemn quiet
A familiar moon
Stars light up the sky

I feel then see movement

Ww1

I am alive,
I wonder what is next,
I hear the fire,
I see the enemy,
I want to live,
I am afraid,
I pretend I'm not here,
I feel the shaking of the ground,
I touch the my muddy trench,
I worry for the next attack,
I cry in my sleep,
I am done killing,
I understand I must fight to the bitter end,
I say the

The Soldier Ww1

World War 1 

The Sergeant

The rose cannot compete
with the sweet smell of death,
only her image can forgive.
 Laid upon the silence
of another boys coffin,
which hides this journey in life.

Your shame will not bring him back.
So win your war on kitchen table
for old men know best,
glory is for you who drink to them.
Your lads are entrusted
to

After the Battle Ww1

I felt his breath leave the battle field
as bayonet pierced his heart.
The surprise of death lay in his eyes
his blood poured warmth upon my hands,
anointing my soul with his.

His flow of life will find the earth
to merge with victims past
and another ghost will follow me,
shouting for my demise.

This lowly man who took the shilling
as Judas

WW1
and after bloody ww1
 our returning boys,
were bloody numb,
to walk the roads,
 with a swag outback,
to live on rabbit on the track,
half crazed from bomb and gas attack,
as crazy seen by some,
old soldiers on their rum,
when they could get em some,
