CRAIGLOCKHART HOSPITAL
Because only sane men
can be send to die,
the broken minds
must be made whole
for death to claim.
From their sheltering madness
they must be saved,
so that in the trenches of the
twisted land of razor-wire
they will know the horror
enclosing; so that when the
enclosing; so that when the
shelling ends and
the whistle rangs
they will know that
their death awaits.
That is our duty -
to heal a broken mind
for the body to
reach its destiny,
a bullet or a shell to crush,
mangled to the mud to sink.
