UNSEEN.

In dead men’s clothes we steal away unseen.
Through trenches were ramparts burst apart
With shellfire, knowing only death awaits us
In this hellish place we call no mans land.

Each day and night bone cold and weary as only
Dead men’s minds could be.
We bless each moment as another shell shrieks past.
Selfishly thanking our god that we have survived another day.
And we, the unseen
Steal away watching the morning sun.
It blushes the poppies crimson

Same shade as our fallen comrades blood.
We stare with pitied eyes as the stretcher maimed
Are carried away to spend their days in endless pain.
And now, the new dead of today are once more urged
Forwards, and lament as we cast ourselves,
In futile gesture, upon our unseen enemies guns.
