growing up it wasTHAT space...
pop had a couple chests full of his war shit

i was enamored

jr high i marched around in viet camo gear,
and up in the attic all the old photos
and movies

he was a 8mill guy,
brought home a box full of movies he shot

grown i asked him why he went,
when id seen the crime

but he didnt see the reasons

and once there didnt see the crime.
