You Talking to Me?

by QC Poet


Are You Talking at or To Me?
I'm not Looking back Towards You obviously!
Everyone else Is Looking Forward ahead,
I Got Their Backs so They Won't End up Dead!

My Troops are Standing up At Attention,
This is My Insurance of Disaster Prevention!
The Foliage is Tall but Not So Thick,
To Get past Me This Way you Better Be Slick!

I'll also Ignore your Useless loud Chatter!
For If Attacked not Much else Would Matter,
Survival Of the Troops is What's Important Here,
Covering their Backs is Not Showing any Fear!

What You Say Won't ever Make any Difference!
In The End we All may Die Without any Significance?
So as we All Stand Tall I'll Continue Watching your Six!
On this Journey Till We Reach our Appointed Clicks!

In Miltary speak - your Six means your Back, Clicks is standard measure of walked distances.
