here. Bring your soldiers, your death,
your disease, your collapsed economy because it doesn’t
matter, I have nothing left to lose and you cannot kill me
here. Bring the tears of orphans and the wails of a
mother’s loss, bring your God damn air force and Jesus on
a cross, bring your hate and bitterness and long working hours,
bring your empty wallets and love long since gone but you
cannot kill me here. Bring your sneers, your snide remarks and
friendships never felt, your letters never sent, your kisses
never kissed, cigarettes smoked to the bone and cancer killing
fears but you cannot kill me here. For I may fall and I may
fail but I will stand again each time and you will find no
satisfaction. Because you cannot kill me
here.
