Few men go to war because they have too, and guitars are so much cheaper than a bullet in the head. When was the last time a woman was conscripted the death?

Sadness pulls at me reading of this senseless death. May the stars shine brighter for the next searching soul..
Great expression here.

Very sad but the reality of life. More so today than ever. Great write and something different from you... This can be a cruel world and this hits home with me for sure.

| Kate bush was my inspiration for this one /'/ I loved her song army dreamers as a child and more recently her track featuring Steven fry 50 words for snow which is the title of the album. I think she is a genius and as she said in a earlier track Them heavy people hit me in the soft spot /'/ likewise she hit me .x |
