NYT Iraq War Poetry contest

by RWF
yesterday, Nicholas Kristoff of the NYT announced, of all things, a poetry contest related to the Iraq War, with preferences for brevity, and for those who had served in Iraq
e-mail submissions to nicholas [at] nytimes.com

given the preference for brevity, here are my two Iraq War haiku compositions:

first:

air burns, red, yellow, blue
missiles fired, apartments fall
Bush: God's chosen one

second:

soccer field gravestones
20,000 imprisoned
Bechtel pleases the Street
