Unknown Soldier
A small crude stone slab.
Laid upon this wretched land. 
Wary bones lie,
where no living will ever cry.

No wreath will lay upon this grave.
A death so long ago, 
that no one will honor. A life taken.
His soul will never rest. 


Ragged, small, weary flag above his stone.
Colors faded, scorned name in the very country he died for.
Just one in a sea of thousands. 
Without a name. 

Another overgrown, forgotten grave.
Labeled “ Unknown Confederate Soldier”.
