The Fog Of War Sean M Payne
The Fog of War
By: Sean M Payne
St. Paul to New Orleans�
Straight back to the Capital D.C.
How long did it take me to see?
All of the names found on the wall�
The list is long as I hear their call�
They call out to you and me�
Fight for freedom and liberty!
Tours of the Japan line, Vietnam and the South Seas�
All of the other countries that we�ve never seen�
We�ll fight for you, if you fight for me�
For a better life�What more could they need?
Love and understanding...not misery�
They fought for us, so why should it be?
That you and I enjoy Liberty�
While others live in poverty�
From Washington to the families�
Fight! Fight for your Country�
Soldiers marching, guns and all, in unity�
Stand tall, be strong and don�t be afraid to leave�
How many half to die before we agree?
That the Fog of War is blinding�
It blinds men from seeing�anything�
Through the lives and times�throughout history�
Why haven�t we learned from what we�ve seen?
The road is long and hard�To get back to �we.�
The Monuments go up...for remembering�
For the brave, the bold and the hardworking�
The Fog of War has blinded me�
Men and Women came from long and far away�
In hope of�better days�
JFK made his way through�
Through the Fog of War�Oh will there be more?
How many more...are in store?
Written on 5/29/05 in memory of Memorial Day�
Inspired by the Errol Morris film: �The Fog of War.�
Dedicated to those who did not survive the Vietnam War�No we do not forget you�
