when the music is loud & whiskey flows

you can’t ponder your agony or feel the pain
when the music is loud and whiskey flows 
drowning out the echoes of  battle 
 
Immortalizing the legends
their blood splattered on stone
from the false prophets an  politicians come the stories
and heroes are falsely proclaimed
 
misconstrued stories retold time after time
on blooded fields hell was raised
humanity destroying one another as cultures collide
eloquently praised and heralded  will be the reasons 
when history is written by the ones that won 
 
I've never been one to call myself a hero
nor do I call  myself a poet
my roads have been long and at times barren an
often lonely
 
motel rooms an roadside parks were often the places
I laid my head for the night 
what did I learn from my travels far an wide you ask ?
 
you can’t ponder your agony or feel the pain 
when the music is loud & whiskey flows
drowning out the echoes......
