After The War
A poem by John Breska 44th Scout Platoon, 25th Division Viet Nam 69-70
After The War
There’s a tear in the fabric of his being.. where the memories lie waiting to remind him.. of the horror and the carnage
that is cataloged as war
which civilians never see
for it’d shatter their reality
and leave them in a state of what
to call it I don’t know
but it’s tipped the balance
of the G I Joe
who comes to calmer waters
where life’s normal once again
but he’s having trouble fitting in
for he’s shaken bad internally;
it’s a price they paid for defending
but the dreams are never ending.
