MAN OF WAR Not for me the rolling hills Of a green and pleasant land But trudging through a muddy field Or sprayed by wind-blown sand I do not rest in crisp clean sheets Laid on a feather bed Just the harshness of the earth On which to lay my head I do not have the luxury Of breakfast on a tray Waiting for my mind to clear Before I start my day My sleep might last for just one hour Then shattered by the sounds Of screaming men and constant noise Of guns and mortar rounds No gentle drive to work for me Or bus ride to the door No coffee breaks or flexi-time For I’m a man of war Don Holmes
