. . . made him wonder what the dead thoughthe thought of them often every day couldnt shake them if he tried
they were there when he woke
when he went to sleep
he missed them
desperately
at times
but he couldnt convince himself they thought
of him
not in that quiet
not even quietSilent
Still
he hoped none of them were afraid of the dark
he remembered his fearwhat he did to defeat defy it leave it
behind before it was a childish thing
what had made him wonder
he was in the kitchen spooning wet
catfud onto saucers for four inside two outdoors would get wet too in addition to kibble
might be he
thought of animals he killed skinned ate
or of ruined dead animals he pickedup off the
road mindlessly killed by people in cars that werent skinned eaten
eat what you kill ought to be
required
A little severe arent you son?
I dont know Dad I never went to war like you
Couldve
been a good idea no mindless slaughter no collateral damage
You're really severe boy. Where these ideas come from?
I think theyre common sense
War seems senselessI don know I wasnt
there you were But you were just a young man
Yes. Yes.
You went to prison rather than serve.
I did
Serve who
Serve
wha
Or maybe serve so others can hold power
Bush September Eleventh he
manufactured war
Netanyahu October Seventh he provoked war an apartheid nation virtually begs it
I don’t know grandson. I don’t know, but I don’t think about it. I can’t.
