An Old Soldier's Story

George Weslow

As my mind probes deep

into the depths of Hell,

I remember an old soldier

with a story to tell.

He said "Son", I've fought in wars

since before you were born,

I've seen its victims

their bodies all twisted and torn.

God Protect the Grunts

George Weslow

I know there's a God in Heaven above

Guarding me with his undying love

But God, let me ask a favor if I may

Please protect the grunts from day to day.

If Fuji Could Talk She'd Scream

George Weslow

Fuji to the North,

Dagger to the West,

Feather to the South,

And cedars to the East.

The impact zone

For the big guns to play,

Is lined with targets

For direct fire today.

If I Could

George Weslow

To want... is to need,... to need... is to love, and to love... To love?? God... if only time could be altered! For just a little while, would then I be richer than the knight victorious astride his golden steed!

Would that not then be life amongst the nearly dead? Would that not be richer than the wealthiest of men?
