a dead soldier
staring from the ground
the shifting light

Tom Clausen — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 15:33:47 +0000

glinting there
in the desert sands
the sergeant’s dog tags

Tom Clausen — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 09:32:52 +0000

a grenade explodes
shadows of soldiers skirting
the desert road

Tom Clausen — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 09:31:56 +0000

midday heat
soldiers on both sides
roll up their sleeves

Tom Clausen — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 09:31:03 +0000

mail call
red print of his wife’s kiss
smeared in the heat

Tom Clausen — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 09:28:46 +0000

dust drifts
where the duffle bags were
the white-hot sun

Tom Clausen — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 09:18:06 +0000

After the ambush
the dust settling
into the silence

Tom Clausen — Sat, 31 Oct 2009 09:56:23 +0000

sick on a journey-
over parched fields
dreams wander on

Tom Clausen — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 09:00:07 +0000

spend nights on a journey,
then you’ll know my poems-
autumn wind

Tom Clausen — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 09:52:45 +0000

squeaking in response
to the young sparrows:
mice in their nest
