GREENSPOT
(I'll never wear anything green as long as I live)
in front of the searchlight Hanoi static loud and clear
on the radio on top of the sandbag bunker reading playboy
after dark not to be swapped even for Bangkok R-n-R
in the middle of the goddamn jungle waiting for ink to melt

cleaned unsocial boogers off of their teary-eyes
for congressmen daddies (who am I kidding)
to be proud of their college-kid second-lieu's
right onto the battlefield from johnwayne school
