Rem 2, the sonnet (part 1)

"Rossek Joweh Boweh Joweh" they say
The ritual plays out the same each day
Yellow suits shuffle here and there, then sit
As guards and detainees act out the script.

The docs roll in to start their day anew
As wounds are dressed by the daily crew.
Our nurses look for something to inspire
And medics give out Duwa at the wire.

Though difficult we try not to neglect,
Giving care with dignity & respect.
We strive to win over their hearts & minds
While evaluating balls and behinds.

Supporting each other we made it through
We band of brothers stationed at Rem II.
