Where fathers fought
Alsace, France fragmented
Muster Roll
Captain Sweney's Company
5th Battalion
Pennsylvania Militia
Confederate iron cross
Mt Harmony Baptist Church
off raccoon valley road
Heiskell
railroads run in my blood
badge of federal blue
in Marianna the yanks broke through
heritage not hate bumper sticker
but is it true?
Mother of Exiles welcomed thee
grandfather clock traded for mules
still exists
our castles no longer stand

When I say "The South shall rise again", I mean above what we once were.
Excellent poem.

I love this so much dude! It's been a pleasure writing alongside you :) I'll post mine soon. It's really neat that we both reflected on France (to anyone wondering, it wasn't the plan, just a genealogy prompt).
Beautiful work, truly. Maybe my favorite part is actually the title here <3

My dad is a huge war history buff so the fact that our family is so rich in WW2, civil war, and the American revolution it's fun to draw in from that and spin my own style on it.
many thanks for the good idea and prompt AtoMik.
