Beyond
November 12, 2009
Eerie Silence
Schools filled with fear
Towns filled with dread
Silence Beyond Belief
Off we go
Trudged along with the march
One foot after the other as one
Then
Silence Beyond Belief
Musty smells
Diesel fuel and mustard gas
Aroma of red iron
Silence Beyond Belief
Back home,
Flags wave high
Buildings result to dust
Death Beyond Belief
Eight years later
Time between ten bells and twelve
Silence for those lost
Silence Beyond Belief
