all have not heard of the great big hearts
some of these very boys have. They
stand on the corners and scream out the
crimes, the stories of war, but they do
not cry out the battle they have to fight
within themselves.
These little incidents steal out some
times, and stand for the real elements
that make the man. Think of a tiny boy
