and this epitaph to a soldier draws to a close one thing must be made very clear of the life and the times of the silent repose and the horrors retold of the year the confidence gained and the lessons I've learned almost makes is all worthwhile I'll have to admit that to get through it all I had to develop a style and the things I have learned are the thngs you don't tell to your children about this sick world of the men and their lies their fears and contradictions and those who live with their fingers curled the tension and pain of this life in this world and the price of our high society to give up our freedom and honesty to lie just to prove to the world we are free so I just go on singing I am the lonely roamer moving from town to town and what makes life worth it to put up or shut up is all of the friends I've found from Boston to Denver New York to Monterey regardless of where I roam with just one friend there and some time to be shared I can call this body my home New York to Monterey (Epitaph to a Soldier) Ric Candor ©1976, 2000 EARLY INDEX CREATING ME INDEX MORE PIECES FRONTDOOR BACKDOOR MAIN GATE WINDOW FAREWELL EMAIL
