Pizen!
Between lines of white and yellow
Onward into danger
It wouldn’t hurt if it were
Perpetrated by a stranger
Fists and fire, steel and lead
Unlikely and accepted risks
The ones that really hurt you
Are soft whispers from the lips.

…an written words can be forever.
Uh oh. I better time stamp that poem! Right now Ive got nobody to betray or be betrayed by!
What I was actually thinking about was two things: The first is the paranoid person who we all know who always thinks someone is out to get them, but the second is much more sinister. A friend and I were being chatted up in a bar one time by these two girls. After some conversation they actually told us that they had significant others actually serving in a war zone! That conversation did not continue!
