Goodbye my old friend
We both knew you’d reach this end
Long ago you once said
You’d die sleeping in your bed
My mind’s eye sees your there
Dirty clothes and thinning hair
Jack half gone on the night stand
A cigarette half gone in your hand
Eyes closing on some dream familiar
Perhaps your own recurring nightmare
Ice incrusted at the Chonin
Retreating with men almost frozen
A terror of heroes in flight
Lost a toe or two the night.
Finally you are ever warm
Safe from memories safe from harm

Gloom
The Chonin Reservoir was a strategic of the Korean Conflict
