Poem response to Photograph

   I tried to focus on my objective
but in the end I focused on what really mattered to me
My life
and as I struggle through this beach water 
everything seemed out of focus 
The photographer next to me taking a photo 
The dying men up front catching all of the bullets up front
My enemies and their guns ahead 
All that was clear to me was to stay alive
nothing more

  1. I like how you put yourself in the soldiers place. I also like how you were very descriptive
