Not my best, but hey...whatever. I still like to get criticism for my stuff. happy.gif I actually had to write this for English...can you spot the allusion, connotation/denotation, repetition, and personification? _smile.gif Oh - and what genre of war poetry do you think it is?

Deprived

‘Twas just like every other morose, solemn morn
Where the soldiers await an arbitrary end
As the sounds of mechanic demons are born
Onward he marches, in hopes he transcends

‘Twas just like every other time he stood ground
Prepared to overcome his worst fears of loss
Caught in a shower of fire, watching it come down
Praying to God, he holds tight his dear cross

‘Twas just like every other time a soldier died
Knowing there was no way out, he left Earth
Consumed by the war, he dissolved without pride
Taken by this conflict, he simply erased his birth

Hehe aww thanks! Even though...I kind of think the third stanza sucks a bit. Haha. What can I say...I wrote it in under ten minutes. It's only worth ten points. laugh.gif
