Is it the current state of the world, or what I eat…?

War,


Gore,


Blood,


Mud,


Guts,


Butts,


Pain,


Fighter planes…


 


Muskets,


Swords,


No rewards,


Mongol hordes,


Hand to hand,


Strike up the dirge band…


 


Dreams of death,


Killing and taking away breath,


Do I watch too much world news,


Or do I eat too much before I snooze…?

You watch too much world news, my friend - and so do I. I think from now on, more snooze than news for me. Life's just too damned short. Better to snooze or cruise, or have a wee bit of booze, then watch that horrendous news.

This world, at the present, would give heartburn to anyone Ed - I agree.
