Deployment

Baby night coos a seductive tune,
One of booze and dim-lit rooms.

Pump the volume to a battle cry-
Arm yourself for war.
A soldier in this bout of loneliness,
Get yourself ready to deploy.

Don’t forget your armor-
A drink or two will not suffice.
Keep sating this endless thirst
Until you question day from night.

A stop-watch blares,
Time to form ranks.
Men of the cause your time is now-
a brave platoon destined to lose.

Soldiers in the endless fight,
To find love in the long, hard night.
