Expendable
Soldier
Part: I
Confession of the Expendable Soldier.

 

Here I am in a Jungle
in a world far
from mine.

Ripped from
Education
and thrown
headfirst into
a crash
course
in the art
of death.

Armed to my molars.
Guns, Knives, and Grenades
are my wives.
The dead
are my Children.
A deadly
love affair.

Gunshots, Explosions,
screams of Terror and
screams of Pain
a lullaby for my children.

I am now
a one
man
killing
machine.

Killing people I don't
know.
Fighting for people I don't
care about.
Just carrying out
every whim of
my superiors.

Out on my own.
No support
radio or otherwise.
I am expendable.

 

 

Expendable Soldier
Part: II
Prayer of the Expendable Soldier

As the sun rescurrects
painting the
sky blood
red,
I say this prayer.

Dear God or whoever
the F**K you are
if you even
exist.
I ask of you,
to kill me
today before the
sun dies painting the
sky death-like
Black.

I don't want to
go back
to those
cowards who
threw me into
the middle of this
bulls**t.

TELL THE
COWARDS TO GO
FIGHT THEIR
OWN WAR!.

My country
nor my family
would accept
me back
for I have
birthed many
of the
dead.

KILL ME!!
