Poem

War dogs

And now she was left. 
Bones freezing, ears daring to prick up. 
Her body failing to go on alert due to pure exhaustion. 

Out of the corner of her soggy eye she saw a figure. 
All of the energy left in her piled together. 
She stood up.

Alison A Smith nee Howarth Date: 8/25/2026 2:42:00 AM This compact free-verse poem captures a profound sense of survival through striking, visceral imagery. The brevity of the lines mirrors the subject's depleted energy, making the transition from freezing stillness to the sudden, effortful act of standing up feel deeply moving. Details like a "soggy eye" and "bones freezing" ground the emotional weight of the scene in a vivid, physical reality.
