The omitted army stands

By just breath

Her sadness swept across the land so vast and sandy it whips your tender face as it slashes past at an emotional speed.

The land has again been slightly tainted as as one more child has lost all hope and now joins the ever growing rank of dreary souls trudging step after step without needing any forethought, destined to follow and not lead.

Again the corporate whip cracks they must all stand to attention while they submit to another inspection carried out with inhuman eyes for the slightest inkling of self opinion.

The omitted army is then Served its next lot of orders, of which are bigoted upon them, time and time again.

Little do the hierarchy's of the omitted army know, the Intrepid Army has been deployed to save the dammed from themselves.
