Fallow

[Wjames]

We're all masked monsters
masquerading, no doubt to brittle trumpets
or in tune with the canons roaring in our heads
and I pray to god your world starts spinning

Some decent imagery, but it's a little wordy. You might want to trim it a little, like this:

We're all masked monsters
masquerading to brittle trumpets,
in tune with the canons roaring in our heads
and I pray to god your world starts spinning


The smell of gunpowder stung the corners of my mind
as my eyes scoured the transcending trenches
her canteen is filled with echoes of morphine
and mine was brimmed with wine

Again some solid imagery, but you might want to add some punctuation to give the reader some help with the rhythm.

The squall was wretched and unforgiving
blowing ashes and snow into my tired eyes
a constant reminded of what I have burned
and what I would become

Again, you could add some punctuation to tighten it up, for instance a comma after eyes.

Our names were frostbitten through winter
along with our fingers, combing through cold
It's safe to assume we were tired of digging
for new beginnings, in the snow

This stanza doesn't really do anything for me, I especially dislike "It's safe to assume"

I wandered, I reckon you were frustrated
with my fumbling fingers and weak, stubborn knees
and right now my heart is anchored to my ankles
--there's crescendos in my stomach, crashing me to sleep

I like the last line, but the rest of this stanza doesn't do much for me. You used fingers in the last stanza, I don't know if you should use it again here.

The morning came with thunder
I awoke less of a man than I'd like to believe
my eyes were glazed over, and I was much more tolerant
of the smell of gunpowder in these streets

Good finish, I would change "these" to "the", but that's just personal preference.

Not a bad poem, some lines but it could do with an edit or two to tighten it up.
