late night ramblings of the young and unlearned
the actual ramble goes like this....
flags will fly at half mast today, but not for the death of anyone.
they will fly half as high because when I think of 9-11 there is no feeling.
no nationalistic pride or gut-wrenching sadness boiling in my heart.
there are talking points. a chance to fill one's pockets. gold and glory. war and death and unimaginable cost.
but no feeling.
no love or hate or anger. no forgiveness.
I have become desensitized. My feelings gone, killed by necrophiliacs.
and I fly flag no flag for them.
...if you noticed there were no "big" bills included...don't think to hard...it was not meant as a "hollar" to the little guy but mearly because I had nothing more than two ones and one five in my wallet...some would be so lucky.
