The Post
2 min readNov 3, 2020
Standing in No Man´s land, a charred post views our heroes.
The post stood alone, brittle, bereft of kindness, a peering eye.
Between the trenches it watched as man´s hubris sputtered by.
Raging courage, to quell the fears, it saw men blindly race to the fore,
Soon to be slaughtered with guts hanging in mud, terror turned inward with gore.
