He lost his arm By a cooked bomb His world lit up like firecrackers He was engulfed in fire and metal shards Then his body went numb So he was stitched up And sent back home There was a new brand of limbs So he volunteered to be experimented on For a prosthetic arm As he went through new trials during the day He suffered at night He had night terrors about where he was evacuated from Seeing himself holding a ticking time bomb While bullets whisked past above The bomb sunk into his hand like a solider in the slums And as the time ticked one His arm turned to glass and exploded The shards from his arm imbedded themselves in his skin This was his dreamed He beg to be fixed But even though they could give him a new arm They couldn't fixed what he saw when he closed his eyes
