Bordem in Borden

This is a poem I wrote back in May. I wrote it on the birthday of the EME branch of the Canadian Forces. I came back from the party, a little drunk, and sun burned. I wrote this poem then. I hope you enjoy.Bordem in BordenI'm so bored, very bored,all my friends have left.Here in ol' CFB BordenI'm sitting all alone, deftI got drunk todayGot paid to drinkArmy is sweet heyYou get paid to drinkEME Trades all rockwithout us no others liveWe drink off our socksAnd then we work to giveawaiting training is longI'll be here tell I stew"Sargent, I want a bong""PRIVATE I'LL DRILL YOU!"MY mind has turned to gushI smoke a lot of cigsThe food in the mess is mushDrinking is our digsThey like to run us lotsits all they make us dothey don't call the shotsthat's the high ranks whowe all just fuck Miss Jillweekly we do her a dozenIt's all we got but still,she's like our damn cousinThe admin is herociousI don't know what is upI'm starting to get ferociousThey better where a cupBut at least I have an occupationI have given up much of meI'm not okay, this lack of preoccupation,At least I'm getting moneyFUCK PRETC!!Private Callahan C.DStationed CFB Borden15 May 09By the way PRETC is a type of PAT Platoon. PAT stands for Persons Awaiting Training. PRETC stands for Post Recruit Education Training Center. It's the same thing, and in both, you go there to rot away until you get on your courses.I hope you enjoyed.
