Life Insane

March 28, 2003

Life Insane.
Never the same.
Moment by moment,
We shift, we change.
Scud missiles flying,
Cruise missiles targeted.
War on TV,
I guess this is
What's truly meant?
By REALITY TV.

Most are asleep,
But no, not me.
Too going on.
So much happening.
Sirens going off
Thousand miles away.
Sand storm messing with visibility.
Such craziness upon us,
What else to do.
Sit back and watch the news.
They think they killed
Saddam?
Oh please,
Let it be true.

Get our soldiers home and safe!
