And then the reality of it all struck me.
Like a myriad of lightning bolts thrust like daggers into my heart and mind;
Shattering my innocent, ignorant spirit into shards.
Then the skies tore open and wept,
Wept with, for and within me;
Bitter, bitter, piercing tears,
Whilst the wind howled and screamed
Its most mournful song,
Until the waters rose so high,
I was swept away helpless, hopeless
With the sheer sorrow of it all.

...Insomniac...

Isn't it funny how active military members who have wittnessed first hand what is actually going on in Iraq and Afganistan are donating their money to the one candidate who has been advocating for many years an immediate withdrawal from the war? So they are willing to potentially sacrifice their jobs so that the war can be stopped! Of all people, those in the military are the ones who have truly seen and been a part of what is  happening in this war, and they want it stopped. Now that is truly saying something.
