Face down in a pool of blood
In some foreign field of rice
A forgotten human sacrifice
I didn’t as a man return
With peeling skin all splotched and burned,
Making faces wince and turn,
A grotesque object curtly spurned
I didn't l lose an arm and leg
A hero with no hands to beg
A crazy man, a jumpy vet
Who cannot manage to forget.
