Muddy water was all we had to drink
we went weeks without eating
the field, a soup bowl
a graveyard of tanks and landmines
and every ten minutes we heard an explosion....

Our feet were rotting from gangrene
A soldier had his arm sawed off
and a cigarette sticking out of his mouth
We cuddle with our bayonets
and we kissed the blades
pretending that they were our wives

Flies had began to gather
swarming in a soldiers mouth
his eyes rolled to the back of his head
a bullet though his chest, his medals stripped
and his coffin became the soil...
