"Music blasts from the parked H2 around the corner,

'hear it around the world'

Stuffing uniforms into too-small bags

One black, one white

'ain't no use in tryin' to lie'

This is this town's simplicity,

Their n.o.r.m.a.l.i.t.y.

In their everyday lives

Revolving

Around ACU's, blue stars, and the inevitable,

'Where will we end up next?

Germany? Iraq? Or dead?'"


A.N.: In a city of nothing but soldiers, I'm bound to come up with something like this...I'll admit I almost missed this little town.
