“Little soldier, little insect You know war it has no heart It will kill you in the sunshine Or happily in the the dark Where kindness is a card game Or a bent up cigarette In the trenches, in the hard rain With a bullet and a bet.” KnowsHeartLittlesWarHardGamesDarkKindnessRainSoldierCardsSunshineCigaretteBulletsBentInsectsTrenches Author:Conor Oberst
“To fire a bullet into the heart or brains of one's fellow man even a fellow man striving to do the same to you creates what might be called an unassimilable memory: a memory that floats on daily life the way an oil stain floats on rainwater. Stir the rain barrel, scatter the oil into countless drops, disperse it all you like, but it will not mix; and eventually the slick comes back, as loathsomely intact as it ever was.” MenWayHeartMightMemoriesBrainFireRainFellowsStriveOilDaily LifeBulletsFloatsFellow ManStainsBarrelsSlickRainwater Book:Julian Comstock: A Story of 22nd-Century America Source: Julian Comstock: A Story of 22nd-Century America
