First time
on my own
I had suspicions.
Different ideas on
Life, History, Philosophy

Nobody passes.

Never question
[This], and bluntly,
Violence settles it.
Everybody knows it.
Violence settles
Destinies.
This wasn't what I originally envisioned. But I couldn't bring my original vision to light... Tried going from the bottom up, and with a little help from Leonard Cohen, this piece came together.

Come home.
Catch your
Breath.
Quick

Peaceful,
Happy,
Good.

No!

Functionless,
Obsolete,
Inferior.

Is that what
You want?

Misguided,
Afraid.

Have confidence!

That night,

I’ve never
Mentioned it.
Such things are not for…
We watched
The end.
The last, grim fool(s)…

Go!
A terrible memory, a terrible secret?
A terrible memory, a terrible secret?

Together,
Together,
Together [we]
Push theory,
Supply instruction,
Anything WE did
Was fun.
It didn’t matter.

Contrariwise

Me [and] he [were] not
Natural, right,
Obvious.

Odd look[s]
Stop.
Free choice.
Volunteer.
Found out,
Out of your mind.
A predictable stage.

Grow up,
Too valuable.

Sick.

the words on the page and the military are both charged with homoerotic undercurrents. Obvious to everyone, admitted by no one. I can't imagine the difficulty, until most recent times, of living such a life
