dust


dust...
so very deep
flour soft to drag the step
and clouds boiled
for every one
does this describe the heat
150 degrees in the shade
none will ever believe
but exaggeration not achieved
for simple truth this was
missiles fell on odd hours
late at night
yet in-between we slept
pouring sweat
covered yet in suits
impermeable to chemicals
so we all hoped
impermeable not to the water
we bled from every open pore
yet with every explosion
some times felt
we hoped ever more
and to miss one loved
so late at night
while waiting an all clear
from a trench of sandbags
open to the sky
how can one explain the thoughts
explain the want
the wish
to be back in a
loved ones arms
