Very nice. Thank you for sharing with us. I like it all, but the "lock and load your mind" really resonated. It is indeed a war for our minds and we need to treat it like every other weapon and keep it clean and serviced. Strip it down and have it battle ready, not sitting idle lying in a safe collecting dust and passively absorbing information.

That YOU, for the gracious comment. And I agree, if we are not keeping the mind primed and ready we will fail every time.

I’m not in a hurry to be facing a firing squad... However, surviving the day and have the other sob to hang for crimes against humanity might be the path to securing a lasting peace. Course none of this rhymes as there are no prose for cowards;)
