Military Mind
Sexless uniformed surfaces not needing a life inside. Worthless devils fighting
all the time and hurting all others against the flag or under orders or authorized
this is the military mind just recently there was news a man held off his mind with
love the conscientious objector was recognized.
When eye was alive it was harder inside a man could have chosen the medical
core or just died in the combat. The colors on those flimsy operating room suits
were all wrong eye wore khaki may GOD please forgive me eye thought it was
better to die than to live with my military mind. Nixon stopped the troops
movements to the then Viet Nam. Nixon signed my discharge under the peace
movement then. My foot was swollen from a drinking binge could have been gout
my foot swollen up the doctor told me to toughen up when everyone else was at
bayonet practice eye walked on the sidelines not worthy to fight just trying to get
my foot to work to move my military mind. Since then as a civilian again eye have
almost ruined that foot again its lame on one side.
Now that eye older and lame became a fight would be welcome again to my
military mind. God please give me your strength to then die. To lose a life taken
is to gain it in Heaven eye object to my military mind.
