over the top we go with are hearts in are mouths and guns on are back the genrale shouting for us to hurry we reach no mans land running trying to win it over shoting what ever and who ever we can with bulits flying everywere and bodys on the ground rain betting down on us we battle on when the fightting is over there is a smell the smell of death friends familly and others laying around you dead you lay there wishing you were too in the hospital tent there is a horrible smell and crys of the wonded docters and nurses runnig around trying to help they come to you laying half dead and tell you your friends are dead you ask to be killed to spare the pain but they do not wish for you to be killed once your healed its out again over the top and at last BANG BANG your dead Z.mcmillan |

Fodder for the Politicos and the Generals. A waste of energetic youth, and then the old and the children too when the war goes badly. |
