@kmob1003.global: Some wars come home wearing a uniform. Grim Jackson’s “No More Heroes” is a devastating piece about violence, training, trauma, race, and the machinery that teaches people to see human beings as silhouettes before it teaches them how to live with what they have done. The poem starts with a countdown and becomes a confession. Soldier. Target. Enemy. Child. Weapon. Memory. The language keeps shifting because the mind is trying to survive what the body was ordered to do. “Post-traumatic self-destruction…” That phrase sits like smoke in the room. This is not just a poem about war. It is about what happens when systems call violence service, then hand the survivor a silence too heavy to carry.
