THE BROCHURE

by

Charles T. McGrath

 

 

Travel the world the brochure reads,

Exotic places like Baghdad and Walter Read,

Cool toys to play with, toys that kill,

The compensation is fair, but yours could be less,

If you forget your metal vest.

 

Education offered with becoming a vet,

Corpses littering your future, some never met,

But mothers knew them for they were loved too,

See what state of the art technology can do.

Travel the world the brochure reads,

Exotic places like under a bridge and PTSD.
