     There is no reason for the soldiers to be fighting this war, greedy fucking leader is what the problem is. But thats besides the point. Good rhyming. but most soldiers have no brains and dont know how to think for themselves. fighting for a rapist. Sorry if you dont like the comment but its just my thoughts flowing on the screen. well written! + Report this comment |  |

     This was a great Poem and just in time for Independence Day. Some say I am a little too patriotic for my own good (I have an American flag tattooed on my ankle) but I can't help but be proud of the soldiers for their sacrifice. Maybe it has to do with the fact that many of my family members are Soldiers, including my two younger brothers. Wonderful piece. =] + Report this comment |  |

Punk, I can't see how you can make a generalized statement like the one you made about soldiers not haveing brains or the ability to think for themselves. I understand your misgivings about the WAR, but don't shoot the messengers eh? + Report this comment |  |

Lemon, I'm not talking about all soldiers. I'm just speaking about the ones I know. The ones that i know say 'hell yeah we gonna go kill some terrorist bitches and serve the almighty president! he says they be some terrorist so we gonna go kill them sonsofbitches!"
I'm sorry, as i read the previous comment i made i realize how i sounded. I apologize if i may have offended you.
I agree, those soldiers are some brave men going out there like that, i just disagree with reason why. they are dying by the hundreds just for a greedy coward.
once again, sorry for previous comment. + Report this comment |  |

"stereotype of comment"
thats was why i was apologizing, lemon. i couldnt believe i wrote that all soldiers had no brains, i must have typed it out wrong. alot of them dont know how to think for themselves, and some are different then that. some are actually smart. im sure your brothers are in the latter category, judging from your well written writing your brothers must be smart like you. :) + Report this comment |  |

     Good structure and flow. I have some friends who're soldiers and I'd like to think that they're with people who're like this. Even though they're ridiculous bastards. + Report this comment |  |

     This was very patriotic. Having been raised in a military family and on military bases, I have a certain appreciation for the military. However, your poetry digressed away from rhyming at times. I would go back over and continue the flow from beginning to end. Don't leave a word behind! + Report this comment |  |

this was a really nice poem. it was really nice to read this and i think that most people could relate to it because they know someone in the army. i thought that it flowed quite well. + Report this comment |  |
