WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO " NO MAN WILL BE LEFT BEHIND "
Folder:
X - Files street lamps form circles of light upon the darkened streets
a rainbow of gaudy neon glows from store windows
wanting you to buy this or that
shadows move in the neon moonlight that leads to
dark alleyways
lost in a world where they fell through the cracks of
the system they once defended
two old vet's with flat eyes sit along the wall passing a fifth
back a forth watching the whores mingle in the edge
of light eyeing the traffic
their dignity sold by the hour to all that come
the one with the tat thats says Death Before Dishonor
spends his nights clutching his stray dog
who listens to his muttering as if it understands
maybe it does
the otherones ink simply says Semper Fi
he lays under a hand me down army blanket
fighting the demons he can't share

Homeless vets. Yeah, left behind. Anger is not enough.
