Camouflaged, Specialized, Generalized
Caps as hard as steel, will aid.
Worn by others, memories within.
The trauma is nothing for a soldier
strap as tight as a noose Chin trapped between
Worn rubber, of those who fought we AIM
.uniform of heavy thought, light movement, all the same BANG!
But different in every way, we stride, heavy footed
The weaving pain of the horrors The interlaced suffering .
The belts as tight as The wishes to go back.
The pants heavy and dry Pockets for storing hope
Help. memories, they stride
Boots as heavy as two bricks
The pace muddy as is our mind
In nylon wool we move towards
to end the fight to survive , to thrive
