Comrades in Arms

Comrades in Arms


Nature playing the role
Of some devil may care
Dressed up for some other
Non local affair
With destiny settled
For certainty those
Who chose to accept
The conditions imposed
And practiced his art
With such consummate skill
That he only just made it
With time left to kill.

Hi Frank I like the line,
( Dressed for some other Non local affair) Good poem I like it

That's my Dylan inspired poem, Michael. Some of the photographs in the war section were taken along the Ramparts in Navan.(During the day) The light is strange down there!

I know. I changed that post a bit. Take another look, I put a piece of text with it.

Will do, Michael, will do.
