Bombs bursting!
Loud wailing…
Missiles launching!
Arms swaying.
Distant sirens screeching…
Legs dragging,
Torsos ripping…
Anguishly excruciating.
Moans creeping…
Battlements engaging.
Thirsty lads dying…
Simply tasting water by sipping.
Bodies and souls all missing
a form of piecing.
This state of fierce warring.
==================================================
Bombs bursting
Into loud wailing.
Missiles launching
As arms are swaying.
Distant sirens screeching
While legs are dragging,
as their torsos are ripping,
with anguishly excruciating
moans creeping
Quietly from battlements engaging.
Thirsty lads dying
to taste water by sipping.
All their bodies and souls missing;
a form of piecing
from a state of fierce warring.
