I am your tin soldier
in the beginning of the end ( WAR )
never ending..................................
in the end of the beginning ( WAR )
just a number
a ( Bush ) dog
tag
that is Bagdad dusted
dust to dust
I am the Black Hawk
bad a**
flying into the black sky
I hike the trail called
road bomb row
that is mapped out for
today's target shopping
dust to dust
lights out eyes filled
ashes to ashes
a mother and child
went to the wrong party
blood on ice
head dress blown away
while holding her child's hand
all on the same day
the car bomb crew
have arrived
tin soldiers too....
the mother and child
now with their God
special forces creeping
in and out of black widow web
stuck where they shouldn't be
another number
another ( Bush ) dog day
they dream about their
Homecoming Parade
in their half sleep
little do they know....................
they're coming home
FLAG WRAPPED!
