--fdxaWYUQIlOfL+ny Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Ah crap just one more I promise. Then I'm really going to try to sleep. This one speaks truth as well: BURY ME WITH SOLDIERS I've played a lot of roles in life; I've met a lot of men. I've done some things I'd like to think I wouldn't do again. And though I'm young, I'm old enough To know someday I'll die, And to think about what lies beyond, Besides whom I would lie. Perhaps it doesn't matter much; Still, if I had my choice, I'd want a grave 'mongst soldiers when At last death quells my voice. I'm sick of the hypocrisy Of lectures of the wise. I'll take the man, with all the flaws, Who goes, though scared, and dies. The troops I knew were commonplace They didn't want the war; They fought because their fathers and Their fathers had before. They cursed and killed and wept... God knows They're easy to deride... But bury me with men like these; They faced the guns and died. It's funny when you think of it, The way we got along. We'd come from different worlds To live in one no one belongs. I didn't even like them all; I'm sure they'd all agree. Yet I would give my life for them, I hope some did for me. So bury me with soldiers, please, Though much maligned they be. Yes, bury me with soldiers, for I miss their company. We'll not soon see their likes again; We've had our fill of war. But bury me with men like them Till someone else does more. -- Not sure on the author here either :( peace, core --=20 Charles Stevenson (core) <core () bokeoa com> Lab Assistant, College of Eastern Utah San Juan Campus=20 http://www.bokeoa.com/~core/core.asc --fdxaWYUQIlOfL+ny Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE9ft+mGAuLrxOyeJMRAlSGAKDBn+1bG/3T5L4E0scI5Y0xSC3t5QCeM7wu V53CQIcsCQLEKFsjeMQ0Yjc= =g+1s -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --fdxaWYUQIlOfL+ny--
