"Brothers Unknown" (cont) "Combat Weary"

“Combat Weary”
cji
5/18/16
Seeing the canopy ahead
mountains and streams
snakes and spiders too
bugs of all kinds to face
then the traps and webs
snipers chained to trees
trudging ahead slowly
carefully spreading out
scouts silent in movement
seeing not the canopy
or the cloud cover there
going root to root to tree
blazing a trail for us
combat weary well known!
