For the Love of Whyby MrDaManVirgil R. Hall II (Randy)As we stand trembling in the valley of fear.Locked, cocked and ready to rock, dwelling upon the insistence of painful reality the light is darkened by doubt. Are you my brothers my Cain and my Able?What fear, what love, what evil has furrowed your brow?We hug our triggers and our hatred, our love spews death, our mothers are proud. We share this battlefield, this bed weve made, we splash our blood, it mingles in the land.Soldiers, brothers we hate each other with love that kills, embrace us till death do us part. We share this love of annihilation, of hatred, of our mothers, of conscience.May the best men win and cry as the worst of us die and sigh for the love of why.

Nov 19, 2008 - Poets have a long tradition both extolling the virtues of the heroic warrior fighting the good fight and condemning senseless human carnage in the name of vain pursuits. Either way, art wins.
