I understand your poems too well, maybe. Are you familiar with poems by any Ranger Vets? Does the name Joe Little ring a bell. He was involved in an acting group, they made a video, it was a series of skits with real players re-enacting scenes involving PTSD. I'm sure Sarge would have known him. He wrote quite a few poems of life, in Vietnam and the PTSD caused and dealing with living afterward. His poems brought tears to my eyes because they brought back memories I thought I had hidden successfully, and probably making me sicker because of hiding them. Wait, I think I remember the name of the video, or the acting group, or it had to do with them. It was something like "Home of the Brave Foundation". Your poems remind me of his. We were very close friends, we lost contact somewhere in the chaos of my last marriage.
