A Weird Recipe

Ready, Steady, Aim and Fire,

Shells of bullets, bodies pile higher.

Trickling tears, mixed with mint,

Shed for the blood of the innocent.

Stink and sweat from all the guys,

Five cups of dirt, and spying eyes.

Fellow Soldiers, some are kin,

Spice it with the dreams of men.

Destruction with man power and fire,

In hopes to make it one step higher.

Ready, Steady, Aim and Fire,

Shells of bullets, bodies pile higher.

Author notes

I wrote this in my Dual Credit English class after reading MacBeth. It was an actual college class assignment that I liked so I decided to post it.

Please tell me what you think
