A poem about the Vietnam War and how it affected the returning soldiers. History.
You work all day
You work all night
Helping your family
Its what you think is right
You receive a letter
That requires you
To do what the government
Wants you to do
You train for months
You fly away
To a country
That is in deep decay
You stay here for years
“Defending your country”
Losing your friends
Losing your mind
You return home
After time at war
To see who you had reckoned for
Your not welcome here
We saw what you did
Your as bad as them, you can’t kid
