Hubris
 
on closer jubilation
i am standing before a
backdrop of newsreels,
 
applauding and cheers.
 
the lastest scientists
instruments broad minded
whip up propoganda
flesh from the bones
 
the ablest
the fittest
storm the 
beach head
on a D - Day afternoon
 
their firm bodies
mowed down 
by the very best in
 
cutting 
 
edge technology,
 
from this dying uniform grey
comes the gattling green and golds.
 
with
star
in 
eye
 
( gutter version )
