Walking the tiresome journey
Through the drudgery of servitude
Sipping the bitter drink
Of the day to day to day
Breaking the back of the wishbone
Watching the dream fade to fog and
uncertainty
The honor hidden in the realm of a
noble past
The warrior confidence pulsing
through the artery
Feeding the center of compassion
In the dust of the battle
Becoming a mystery,
A glimpse of a second sight
Of something delicate falling
through
A crack in a colorful prism
Through a brilliant portal in time
Landing at our feet,
Overcoming the feat
Fighting on, wearing the armor,
Toughening our skin
Layer by layer by layer
Plodding forward in the duty and the
honor
That continually keeps us from the
glory
