3 Days Poem by Rusty Ed Gibson

3 days from nowhere
is where they landed me
3 days more
before they are back to me

Do anything you have to
to stay alive and free
Do anything you have to
is what they are telling me

Not sure what all of this
is really all about
Not sure why anyone
would want death around

They said I couldn't understand
what the politics is all about
They said I didn't need to know
it would make me just want out

All I needed to know
was I am in a fight for my very life
I would have to get mean
to make it through the night

When the light runs out
and the bullets are all gone
The wave will come
and tomorrow ill be gone

3 days from nowhere
is where they left me
3 days to survive
and its all up to me
