Psalms 27
3: Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.


I am calmer now,
With paranoia turned real,
I know they’re waiting
And foul wrath I will soon feel,
My end is at hand
Yet my hands are rock steady
And holding nothing;
This finale is ready
To accept the fate.
It should be but slight pain
No too long hunger
No hiding to just remain.
I came to defend,
Holding principles dearly,
For what I believed,
Things taught to me so clearly,
Yet now defeated,
This one person’s death reports
To sacrifices supports

Thank you, Nan
We, as a people, tend to take the sacrifice our warriors make
Far too lightly, those that stand and give with integrity,
Defending what we and they believe.  Those with the wills to do.

Thank you, LeeJ,
Pleased you liked this work dedicated to our warriors.

Thank you, Seymour
Not sure I understand what you mean by “bot(t)om of the Barrel”,
This is actually pulled from the bible verse used for last Sundays Sermon,
It just took me a while to get it written.
Pleased you took the time to comment
