A Veteran’s Day poem.
Bludgeoned by the seeds of mayhem,
And consumed by hardships.

And equaling the brave men and women
Of the armed forces
Who came before them.

Soldiers and troops
Lengthen a patriotic vigor
And valor
Shown in the annals
Of today’s glorious realm.
The broad brushstrokes
Of freedom
Give birth to the resolve
Of heroes
In every corner of America
And the world.

Tomorrow’s military
Balance a ceaseless code
And sacred drive.

And the architecture of freedom
Shall unite these citizens
In a palpable and knowing cause.
