Almost half of me

Cameras watch through
black bubbles
it's creepy
being comfortable sometimes

swallow that infection
before the vultures get you first

he built bridges
fought Nazi's
it was 41' or 42'
he was taken down near a small town
just outside of Saint-Lô

he said check on Lib
if anything happens to me
that anything turned out to be
return machine gun fire

Mitchell confided in Messamore
now here i am today
so Mitchell stands
in worlds fair park
on marble granite's grey

a poem based on actual facts and history
my grandfather was almost private Mitchell
his name is on the wall
