W3 – Dormasha

war is hell

an old phrase spoken

men, women

sad children

many quotes from veterans

deeply remember

*

blood soaking

cloth and streets

never ending loud alarms

crowded bunkers filled

children’s wide-eyed tears

war is hell

no safe space

*

bread and water scarce

medical supplies too late

mothers flee in fear

war is hell

weeping reigns

futures end

***
