I see a billion black boot soldiers Marching through the dawn In a ****** up ****** sky, With thier standards standing high.
There’s a tale in every colour And a line through what’s been drawn, That depicts the hurtful images; Of the things I can’t describe
I see a single dove amongst two spires, Flying high above the crowds, Calm within the sweet warm light, With her wings spread wide; she glides.
Now there’s poetry in motion; With her head up in the clouds; A good soul in quiet repose, And with her angel eye she spy’s.
A foetus in its Sunday best, Travelling through the birth canal, On a joyous bed of hell; From betwixt two ****** thighs.
A brand new storey does unfold, It’s said all’s well that ends well, Its place of birth here on Earth; That’s where we hear each child’s first cry.
This painter paints for me An image I can’t perceive Of an angel soaring high above our skies.
Soon another will pass by, Lying in a box too cold. In a cemetery up high, On the top white lily’s lie.
As-if in quiet thinking, Four corners of a box men hold; Within the body’s final fold; A simple sky the mourners cry.
This Artist paints for me, An image I can’t perceive; Of an angel soaring high above our skies.
This painter paints for me, An image I can’t perceive, And I sense that as one enters life; Another light shall die.
The armed services still employ war artists to paint the consequences of ****** conflicts. It's believed that an artist impression conveys a much deeper understanding of the experiences endured by the casualties of war.
