Exceptional Free Style-Contest Entry To Cherish Thorns : In Thanks For Service Rendered by michaelcahill Free-style poem: human suffering writing prompt entry

In Thanks For Service Rendered   To protect and serve limb heart mind life soul        languish on land            crawling thru bloodied muddied muck and gore            for freedom's foundations           jaundiced in jungles canopied prison            gasping sand saturated breaths                 as the desert shimmers           falling as wings detach unnaturally      embraced by an ocean      where you become      another mystery      of the deep   a hero's welcome the loud brass sounds hurting the ears with intentionally loud praise              cool breeze on a July freedom            kind of evening            the sky explodes with victory's emblems            songs of valor fill the air      a worthless bum begs for a dime   Writing Prompt The topic for this contest is: Human suffering. Author Notes The treatment of American Veterans is this country's greatest shame in my opinion.
