“Threading
in the Mud”
cji
8/24/17
Incessant
rainfall days on end
finding mud
where once roads
dreary
soldiers marched on
sickness
disseminating troops
long
years between 1773-1785
cold,
rains, snow, ice, movement
from
field to field fighting battles
long
periods of solitude searching
never as
in the movies of today
no clean
clothes or even soap
yet
fight they did over and over
battle
to battle never giving up
unknown
to the complainers
the left
of today’s extremes
only
adding to the mud/filth
throwing
right away for lust
threading
in the mud today
destroying
all freedoms
unknowing
where from
and
sacrifices made then
amid the
incessant rainfalls!
