Splash across the battlefield's
Landscape like rivulets
Of red hot lavaflows
Unstoppable as more is shed
For county's honor, protection,
Politics that sent them here
To kill or be killed
By ones unknown
And unknowable to them
That fight with weapons
Terrible, horrible, finality
The many will attain
Whether asked for or not
But their cause must be just
Having been good and righteous
In their hearts and minds
For no man lays down his life
For nothing
Do they?
