We are all cannon fodder
For the beast called 'War'
Wars are constant, on going
Since the dawn of man
All of us, young and old
Warrior's, Battlefield Earth
Where the beast called 'War'
Feeds on blood and gore
Innocents abound
From newly born to those aged
None are spared
ALL, a feast for the beast
Signed,
Warrior, Battlefield Earth
I like seeing your photo as an 18 year-old. the fact that you experienced this war gives you an edge when writing about it. Very good.
Hey, the recent addition of the picture of you as an eighteen-year-old is a nice touch! What is that certificate that you are receiving?
I am honored to be Darwin's sister as I read one poem after another. Deep, piercing emotions. He is my oldest brother in a family of two boys and 5 sisters. Memories of childhood, working in the fields and family traditions of Christmas joys and parents love. Darwin, you are one of a kind.Thank you for sharing your poems with the world. Wish everyone could read and learn as they do. Love you my dear, dear brother!
Yes sir i agree about the post traumatic experience. It's never easy to be in war, though it seems a pride and honor but put to be in war is not easy. I salute your courage and efforts. Sir your poem is just too good. This is my first war poem i think i have read.
I like 'Never Ending' very much, based as it is on personal experience. A fine photo also.

I'm sure glad you made it out, my friend. Did I ever tell you that you are mentioned in my poem POETRY HEAVEN? We haven't had much communication lately since you have been over there in Thailand.
