Now That's my Brother

Now That's my Brother

A Poem by Friday Junior
"

Helping me see the light, my brother!

"
Every now and then
Since I can't pretend
I think of you 
And all my dreams come true
And so my life of grafting is through
Every once in a while
I get a smile
From a front-line warrior 
Who escaped the corner
Where ambushed soldiers kill
To turn another cheap thrill
At the end of the day
When I think I must pray
By the battle fatigue I feel
I know you're close
With a vital repose
And a hot cooked meal anyway
Now that's my brother
See the man in action
Now that's my brother
Full of satisfaction...
I see these things
Like a lifetime of sins
And soon there will be no mercy
Or compassion from the adversary
And us damned will go our way
Leaving a trail of debts to pay
Now that's my brother
See the man in action
Now that's my brother
Full of satisfaction...
