There is sobbing of the strong,
And a pall upon the land;
But the People in their weeping
Bare the iron hand;
Beware the People weeping
When they bare the iron hand.
by Herman Melville after the death of Abraham Lincoln

Forever or a day I lost a friend yesterday, Didn't have time to stop and pray
Or even say "Rest In Peace", I wonder, will it ever cease?
Yesterday is gone and tomorrow is here, The morning sun brings a little cheer
But thinking of my friend who lies at rest, I can't help wonder, which is best
To watch a friend die who once stood tall, Or to have never had a friend at all.
However lonely it my be, without a friend for company
At least again I will never say, Lost a friend yesterday
But old man time marches on, And soon we tire of being alone
So, natural optimists that we are, Always reaching for the unreachable star
We let our heart control our mind, And very soon ourselves we find
Trying again and glad to say, I made a friend yesterday.
Written by Bill Blair (Osias) Tarrance USMC KIA 22 Feb 1969 Tn VFW News Magazine
THE LINK TO TOP ARTY SITES HAS BEEN REMOVED
THE ABOVE REFERENCED SITE HAS APPARENTLY, LINKED TO AN ORGANIZATION WHICH IS AFFLIATED WITH OTHER ORGANIZATIONS THAT ARE ACTIVELY ATTEMPTING TO, IN MY OPINION, INFRINGE ON MY SECOND AMENDMENT CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS. THERE IS NO WAY THAT THESE PAGES, WHICH I OWN AND OPERATE, WILL BE LINKED TO ANY SUCH SITES. ITS AN INALIENABLE RIGHT FOR ME TO PROTECT "ME AND MINE" AND TO HAVE THE MEANS TO DO SO. I VEHEMENTLY OPPOSE ANY ATTEMPT TO INFRINGE ON THIS RIGHT. ALTHOUGH THE RISK OF BEING THE VICTIM OF VIOLENCE IS FAR LESS THAN THAT IN THE NAM, I STILL DON'T WANT MY LAST THOUGHTS TO BE "I WISH I HAD A GUN".
