Granted I know I'm a pussy who's barely been in a fist fight and I'll probably never be a fraction as brave as those men, but when I read what soldiers say about war, it's the only thing that speaks to me
Whether it's fiction from the Iliad to Apocalypse Now to Blood Meridian, or memoirs of soldiers. War feels like the closest parallel to the kind of loneliness we experience. War and true loneliness and the purview of men. It breaks young men and haunts old men till the grave. When I read stories about how soldiers say they'll never be same after time as a POW or seeing their friends blown up corpses. I see a parallel between my time rotting and having friends who roped
Am I spitting some real shit rn or is this just a pretentious subhuman who doesn't know true pain?
