"The guns taught only one thing, but they taught it well: of what
consequence is life? Of what consequence is a man? And, therefore, of
what consequence if he tramples love in one place and goes to find it in
the next? The little moment that he has, let him be at peace, far from
the guns and all that remind him of them." -

The wound, hidden, bled through his clothes
Those he meets casually talk in cliches
Yet his eyes, bright with promise, gleam
for today
He will never stop running, though he
grows weak,
from the stain flowing down his shirt
Yet his eyes, bright with promise,
gleam for today
I like this; so much, expressed so simply.
