"The
Same Star" You see a single star, twinkling in a darkened sky, gazing...remembering...hoping, holding back the fear, alone with your rifle, silence... broken only by sporadic gunfire, off in the distance, another life...a world away, warmth there...love there... sadness here...sadness you can taste, and despair! A star shines there and here, there, it's lovers talking softly, here, it's danger from the light, the same star...twinkling there... dimming here...the same star, radiating it's serene message there and sending slivers of fear, raining down here, the same star... the folly of men...the glory of war, you close your eyes... the star has faded, you guard your post, you cry... and die a little inside...
