LA assignment task 1

This war poem was written in Vietnam, Saigon, by Harry M Bechtold. He was in his most beloved country and he was writing a poem about how men abused girls working in the park to express his anger but was not able to think of anything. He looked at the television and the news was about a photo of a small boy with a helmet and an automatic rifle. It was only till then did he get his inspiration to write and pen his thoughts to write this poem, Children in the Darkness.
