Favorite Quote:
When you are joyous, look deep into your heart and you shall find it is only that which has given you sorrow that is giving you joy. When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight.<br /> <br /> ~Khalil Gibran


Brothers in arms march forth
Figures Bathed in red
And yet they stand as one
Through uncharted territory, in the face of exigency
Consumed by pain, anguish, desire, fear
And the men march on

Lacking inspiration in a triumphant cause
Would close the traps, or never
The Begotten fools in wartime
Forsake their heart and minds
And publicize the Greats in envy
Never a notion of their own, but the Battle Cry of war
As thought slips slowly away
And the light whispers through the trees
And the men march on
