I Was Water In Viet Nam

by Mushroom Montoya

I was water in Viet Nam
Washing away the sins
Of deceit, hate, and greed,

Failing to feed
What my soul desperately needed
When no one heeded
The call for Peace.

I was water in Viet Nam
Trying to douse the fire
Of the self-righteous liar
Who told us we were on the right
When we were the blight.

I was Water In Viet Nam
Drowning 
In my own ocean.
