But fame is theirs – and future days
On pillar’d brass shall tell their praise;
Shall tell – when cold neglect is dead –
“These for their country fought and bled.”
~Philip Freneau
There is no glory in dying.
You’re just fucking dead.
My heart goes out to those who serve. I come from Military. My brother is in the Navy.
I just look at war and think, “that is the stupidest shit ever”.
Poetic, I know.
