Our Boys

Rating: 5.0


Our boys home
in body bags
no garlands
of flowers
but wreaths
from the mealy-mouthed
lyers.

Short and powerful, although 'lyers' I'm almost certain should be 'liars'. If mealy-mouthed is in reference to the mealy bug, that is an excellent (but disturbing) image! Well done Vince.
