Poem


DISDAINED OR HONORED

By Richard Dillion, Army

Writing Type: Poem

As Americans
Who fought wars before this one -
Brave soldiers fight on.

Guerilla warfare
In Iraq, the war goes on,
Who knows for how long.
Native sons maimed and dying,
Flag draped coffins coming home.

How will this war’s vets
Be treated by our nation
Disdained or honored?
