Array ( [sid] => 14902 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => What they are fighing for? [time] => 2003-03-25 22:25:00 [hometext] => with all this war going on i decided to write a little something. Im kinda torn on where i sit but im behind the troops 100 percent. And hope this is all over soon. [bodytext] => Let the bombs drop
the people cry
just to see
one man die
we send in troops
to leave their homes
all they loved
all they have known
but remember the Times
the front page Read
many wounded many dead
the towers fell
that once stood tall
they brought them down
in front of us all
so fight if u must
against this war
but remember the shock
the tears and the horror
and back your soliders
they know what they are fighting for [comments] => 3 [counter] => 153 [topic] => 43 [informant] => DarkCloud [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )
