Gershon Wolf Poet Couplet

I Was a Soldier's Soldier

The cavalry charged, leading the way
     The infantry advanced, joining the fray

   As for me, I was up to a little deviltry
     Donned my goggles ~ battled virtual reality

Ann Peck August 24, 2022 at 4:43 PM Wouldn't that be lovely--to settle our disputes virtually. Perhaps when people have been replaced by computers. Gershon Wolf August 24, 2022 at 5:47 PM You mean, gasp! I'm still human?! Perish the thought.

Michael Tor August 23, 2022 at 2:12 PM That is the best way to fight a war my friend. Visual combat no one gets hurt. So many of these young kids spend too much time virtually. That will probably be the future wars ha ha... Gershon Wolf August 24, 2022 at 5:49 PM Future wars will look more like the one in Ukraine, I'm afraid, ending with an A-bomb or such. I don't put much stock in cyber-wars...

Panagiota Romios August 23, 2022 at 12:28 PM I see this as brilliant humor! Let me know if I am in error, please? Thank you… Best to you, Panagiota xxx Gershon Wolf August 23, 2022 at 7:02 PM Cogito, ergo errare... As for you, you got it right. ~ Overthinking things

L Milton Hankins August 23, 2022 at 8:05 AM Interesting thought on virtual reality. I have no idea what it is about, really. I'm what you could call "virtually ignorant." Gershon Wolf August 23, 2022 at 7:03 PM ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha... Great comment, Milt Terrific ...

Kim Rodrigues August 23, 2022 at 7:32 AM I too am battling virtual reality but doing it with losing weight in mind…not in mind, in body…lol Kim Rodrigues August 24, 2022 at 10:52 AM LOL! Under the headset, it feels that way. Gershon Wolf August 23, 2022 at 7:04 PM Myself, I'm 'virtually' weightless. lol.
