Alive Human Being Poem by Dorsey Baker

You cannot fall asleep
on guard duty!
the army is still in you
as you walk the dangerous street
wide awake and alert
you know how to survive
you know how to life your life
just another hero
on the battlefied
you come with courage
to the battleground
you promise yourself
you'll never let your
guard down
you promise yourself
you'll be strong
you promise yourself
that you will stay alive
your whole life long!
