Just Around The bend,
Heroes
Just Around The Bend.
Driven to run
fearless into a
bright orange
burning building
white heat searing lungs
browned hair burning
as she saves the child.
In one moment
of compassion
flinging his body
full length
across the grenade
that tumbles into
the camoflauged mess tent
saving many lives
around him from
death's red hot shrapnel
