It is hard to come to terms with the vicious inhumanity that comes with war. Men, women and children so recently going through the normal routines of life; how hard it is to comprehend the obliteration of that day to day normality we take for granted. All the more so that so many are now giving their lives to have it restored.
For My Country
I am dead
flesh torn, brain unplugged.
For my country,
my body,
all eighteen years of its growing,
I give to its soil.
