Immersed in mud & soil
in wars did they toil
One thing, however,
is absolute
a paper poppy image
can be soooooo cute
In a third ear, however,
can often be heard
Cute is, sometimes,
not the right word.
There is no fun thrill
All life is unthrilled
We now live in a world
But I will not hesitate to apologize to anyone offended by the tone of voice
on this page.
That tone happens sometimes when I think of the soldier I remember
most on Memorial Day: Ray Peterssen.
He was in Viet Nam in 1968 but did not become a Viet Nam casualty
until 2012, when he died due to having been exposed to Agent Orange.
A picture of Ray appears on the absolute bottom of every
GoodFather of Math page.
A separate apology is due Daliscar, the photographer
responsible for the genuinely sacred image above.
