Frozen in Time

Memories standing
Frozen in time
To stand for a moment
a moment in Korea on US soil
1950's; a time of turbulence
a ripple effect of communism

Men that bleed in time
On foreign soil
Fighting for freedom
Fighting for their fellow brother
Wanting to go home

Feeling conflicting thoughts
Confusing feelings of self and truth
Why am I fighting here?
This is not my country.
Is this your country
Names and a wall of greyish black
Etches of fallen soliders
Fallen Causes
Fallen past thoughts
A still images of water in a ripple within a pond of time

Moment of time in DC
A Moment of time in our minds
Fresh in the vets of the time
Korean and US
Blood the world wore in frozen breath
Frozen steel ground
Winds of sheer steel
Cutting through souls and moral
Of both

a moment
Of Frozen time
The Korean War Memorial
