Veterans / Memorial Day Poem, #16: INVISIBLE MEDAL
INVISIBLE MEDAL
The invisible medal
Was awarded today
It was given for reasons
That no one can say
We were told to be silent
About what happened that day
"We were not in the area"
"We were not in the fray"
"No one got hurt there"
"Not one person died"
At least that's the story
Oh God, how they lied
So they awarded a medal
But why, I don't know
If anyone asks me
It's only for show
