Pupils Fixed
and Dilated
He
was not permitted to die in peace
The
only mercy granted was release
From
fear and mortars falling from the sky
There
was no possibility of saying goodbye
And
the river water stank, as did the night
His
end was as flickering as the light
Pale
gaspings, a fluttering pulse, dead sweat
D5W,
battle dressings, and yet
The
only mercy was in his release
He
was not permitted to died in peace
