.:Mission Admonished:.

 
two wars  
10 plus years  
that’s alotta damn tears  
alotta bud, alotta beers  
the way it went down  
the way the treasure got spent  
the way the facts  
the way they got bent  
all of it.. how it all went  
 
~that-a-way~  
 
and now its the fade away  
and some would say  
some went above and  
beyond the call  
some of ‘em, we just  
watched ‘em fall  
slouched over here & there
ain't none of it fair  
tripping along the surface  
looking ill-advised and nervous  
this set, this deal  
 
~it’s so surreal~  
 
the homeless..  
ask ‘em how they feel  
benefits on appeal  
come on now; be for real  
another ex-troop  
him caught in the loop  
fucked up cause he can’t get situated  
demeanor a bit agitated  
 
in & out of the line  
soon to do time because  
patience..  
its all but gone  
wrung out for a song  
fact is, it’s all wrong  
but that’s how it is  
the tour, the twin war  
tell us what the hell for?  
all of it kinda jaded  
now how would you  
grade it?
