Semper Fi

From Grandfather at Peleliu in World War II to Grandson in Christ's Vineyards post-Vatican (World War) II CHURCH MILITANT!!

SACRIFICE
OF
STEEL

Dark cold and gray
Under a wave of cement
Wander steel rails
Puffs of smoke
Spray up
From steel-gray whales
He enters
Willingly -
The steel groans and away sails
To the
Cross-road
Shores
Of
Sacrifice and steel nails.
