One big family, that’s what it looked like all the time. Looking after each other. Like when that gas sent me crawling on my hands and knees. Like this fella, he sorta picked me up or got me and walked me down where I should go. I don’t know. That’s what brought it back to you. No regrets at all, over the years. That eye still brings back memories right now, because it’s useless. And yet I’m happy that I did what I did. The amount I did. It wasn’t anything great.Patriotism is necessary. Otherwise there’s always another angle. Who’ll want to step in your place and squash you. That’s the way I look at it. Like today, there’s nations that are just itching to walk all over you, yet. Be ready to look after yourself, if necessary. Maybe I’m seeing the wrong things, I don’t know. It’s no use running.
