The War On Thought Processes

pamphlets declaring war are stuck in the boots of soldiers as they march towards the capital city that they aim to liberate they smell the fear in the air and it is thick with anticipation the sweat collects in their uniforms and has nowhere to escape they stare at the sky and wait for the clouds to dispense some liquid encouragement the mud is up to their waists and the snow is unforgiving they grimace at the thought of what has transpired within these city limits their imagination runs rampant with fears and phobias of how they do not know for what they fight we know now and we remember when grasping for a concept and filing it away where we think it may be safe the mind ensnares information with a mental blitzkrieg that defends all thought a boot traversing through the mud is just as effective as a thought slowly escaping ones mind as we look to the clouds and see that our brains are blanketed in fog war may help you look forward but it is also a great way of looking back now please assist me with these pamphlets they need to be given out like free thought and opinion war has a lot of conflict - true but internal thought is a struggle in its own way
