Patriot
A childs game for violent fame.
Righteous pain, the silence slain.
Objectified offspring selected for offerings. Neglected lives of opposing sides elected for torturing.
Psalm verse, bombs burst.
Death dispersed, the forgotten hearse.
Tombstones composed of battered sentiments.
Last words chattered with a hesitant rhetoric.

I like the ambiguity in this poem Robert...a social commentary and more.
