"Metals"


“Medals”

(Prizes of War)

7/16/13

 

For appearances of futures

not for country or for valor

gathering medals unearned

yet politically correct to have

killing mothers and babies

some have so claimed once

now sitting in places of power

spoiled and soiling all they touch

in their avarice dirty clutches

with metals of their pelf to wear

with metals of their pelf to wear!
