" Technique and ability alone do not get you to the top; it is the willpower that is most important. This willpower you can not buy with money or be given by others... it rises from your heart."

Shoot, bang
All hell breaks loose
Fire, yells
High pitch civilian screams
Tanks, guns, many warriors
They fight with bullets
They fight with bombs
Why don’t they fight with fist?
Are they scared?
Are they just terrified?
Do they wish they were home?
With kids
With wives
On the battlefield
What is there?
Friends, enemies
Just heartless fighters
Is it all of the above?
Soldiers are like feared rhino’s
They won’t stop
Without control
A thousand rhinos
That break everything in its path
