Save Me, God, Save Everybody...

BARROOM! BARROOM!

The sounds of the rifles pierce through my ear,

Is this a dream? Am I really in a war?

SWISH!

A strong burst of air brushes onto my cheek

Ten seconds later…

BOOM!

An artillery smashes into our reserve trench

I guess that answers my question,

I guess I AM in a war,

I guess

I'm in the First World War

It's my turn next…

My turn to hop

Over the top

To try

Knowing that I'll die

But still

At least I could kill

Someone from the other side

What will happen to my children?

Will they take the tormenting?

Terrorizing,

And torturing

Agony?

Or will they just die?

Will I just die?

Will everybody just die?

….Is this…..

PEEEEEEEPPPP!!

Air bursts out of the captain's whistle

Time to go…

out into the violent wrestle

God,

Save me….

Save everybody…
