Military Reflections on War and Legacy

I'm taking it off one last time

in hopes that I can carry on

the legacy of warriors from all over,

my own people, the Chichimeca, from Mexico to Hamas,

fighting for Palestinian liberation.

I hope to never have to wear this uniform again.

Actually, I know I will never wear this uniform again.

I'm thankful for the lessons that I learned.

I do not encourage anyone to join the military.

The only way to stop it is to stop joining it.

We do not need to send another generation of

young people to fight wars for organizations

that are just going to use them as cannon fodder

against an innocent people only to rape them of their natural resources,

enslave them to our petrol dollar,

and to continue campaigns of terror that are destabilizing our world.
