Does he know

That the land that he walks on

Is a graveyard

For friends past

Like I do?


Does he see

The flickering images

Of friends lost

Of tradgedies past

Like I do?


Does he understand

The pain expirienced

Of lost allies

Of bullets puncturing your skin

Like I do?


Does he feel

The heartache

From wounds

From loss

Like I do?


Does he hear

The anguished cries

Of human beings

Being shot down by their own kind

Like I do?


Does he understand

That under his feet

Lie the pain and loss

Of millions

Like I do?

OK let me explain the weird way in which I got inspiration for this poem...

PLZ READ!!!! please?

So when I was like 5 i found this little bird on my lawn. It couldnt have been more than a few days old, it had fallen from my attic. So we took care of it, and a couple of days later, we found it dead cause it suffocated in one of the flaps.

A couple years later we found a baby squirrel, and it also died.

We buried them both in my front yard because I loved them so much (imma animal person). Like when they died I cried for like an hour. Anyway today my rabbit ran right over their graves and in my head I was like "Does he know he's walking over a graveyard" and thus this poem was born.

So there ya have it.

PEACE OUTTT :peace:

I like the idea :iconevilsmileplz:! I had a whole bird house fall in a storm in my backyard around 5 years ago, but my dad and I didnt realize it until two days afterward when all of the birds died from being trapped inside of it, I was so sad.
