DPS challenge poem

Holed up in this bunker
bombs blasting, guns going off all around
dead US soldiers sprawled out on the ground
The enemies closing in on us, we are about to lose this war
There must be something else i can do, there has to be more

I'm a General for christs sakes! It's all up to me now
I know what i have to, but how can i do it.....How?
A body flies over top of me
my men are groaning in pain
I have to make sure that their deaths are not in vain

The only way to turn the tables..is to use our distraction plan
But there is a drawback..for whoever carries out this plan will surely be a dead man
I turn to my left and stare at the boy who i will give this fateful task
but how in the world can I a man ask...
another man to willfully throw himself right into the enemies fire
but the situation is getting worse the situation is dire

I think to myself, geez the boy is only 18
I can't send him to his death, I can't send him to die on the green
but it's too late. I have to give out the orders
so i close my eyes and picture my two lovely daughters

I jump out the bunker and run straight into gun fire
and the beautiful spray of the enemies bullets i can't help but admire
Ahh! I get shot in my chest and fall face up staring at the moon
thinking of my soldiers in the bunker the soldiers in my platoon
don't worry men this will all be over soon
