I’ve never been in a war. Not personally. I suppose if you count my involvement in changing the channel during Desert Storm and again for this battle for Iran’s ‘democracy’, I suppose I’ve been involved. I’ve waded through the many parasite infested mud puddles that bosses like to call ‘safe work practices’ and I’ve made it through alive, if not exactly clean. I struggled to keep the team together while dodging bullets, while climbing fences. I thought we were working as one.
Someone slipped a hand grenade into my backpack. I may be gone, but karma wins the bloodiest war.
