Hidden By The Hills : Adult Poetry

written by Poet : Paul McCann


Soldiers never get much sleep with war games of hide and seek.
Out where no one hears you speak, ghosts crawl round the mountain peak.
The ghosts of Afghanistan call themselves the Taliban.
Aussies and Americans are ghost busting all they can.
The battle's always uphill when a war becomes God's will,
No one wants to take the blame so they kill in God's own name.
Bearded men with hearts of stone like to fight but die alone.
Corpses lying on a hill can no longer maim and kill.
