“Hearing Voices”
cji
7/6/19
Late each night it
begins
first the call to
assembly
mustering of the troops
checking old uniforms
calling of the rolls
then CO speaks clearly
allowing each to know
daily damage done
treason in congress
allowing each to speak
wondering what more
they could’ve done
having given their all
just not enough today
while hearing voices
sobbing and the tears
then sounding of taps
then sounding of taps!
