The Road Less Traveled

Aren't you scared? I didn't know. I had to think about it. I watched the dark dessert horizon, lit up with artillary. Non-stop... brighter than...I don't know what...as far as the eye could see... loud and unrelenting. War No, I'm not. I was just as suprised and confused by this as he was. Are you? Yeah, were in a war! Your really not scared? No, it's exciting. I know, it's crazy. I just can't believe I'm really here...wathcing this. No one's ever know what this is like. I'm really here...wathcing a real live war...it's like surreal or somethin'. Like I'm not really here. He shook his head and walked away. I was fascinated. I don't know how long I stood there, absorbing the sights and sounds, wondering how the hell I landed myself there. The next morning it was over. Wow! There's definitely something to be said for taking the road less traveled.
