Tell My Ma

Tell My Ma

A Poem by Xanthous Crow
"

19th century...

When this is all done,
Won't you please deliver a message
To my mother?
Tell her that,
Her son did not die a coward
As she believes me to be.
Please tell her,
After all the fighting and screaming
That it wasn't her fault.

This is extremely vague. It adds to the suspense(I doubt that's the right word). It's saddening, yet it seems faintly hopeful. Very nice.
