Snow on the Battlefield |
||
I landed on a soldier痴 boot, my neighbor on his hat. The soldier said damn, it痴 cold, and by morning he was dead. I remember falling slowly through the great and lonely dark. The sky had cold gray fingers, and it sang a mournful song. Now I hear the same words, on this strange and bloody earth. Now I hear the same words, and it痴 winter all year long.
