Battling Bare

So, many of you know i support a lot of things. Well today I am going to let a little poem Kat wrote say it all.

Wounded Warrior

Yea, oh wounded one, we are here
We here your cries and your pleas
We see the sadness and the suffering
And we understand

We are suffering too
We cry when you cry
We beg for peace for thee

We scream at the gods for the madness they bring
We howl in despair at your suffering
We may not have fought
But here at home, we fight for you with you

We suffer with you
Scream when you do
We ask for peace for thee

If you think we don't understand, then your wrong
We understand that the demons don't always stop
And that sounds you hear may not exist for us
But we know that their there for you

We ask for your pain
We ask so you may sleep
We do it so you are at peace

Lift up your head and know
We are here no matter what
We love you, wounded warrior

Please, everyone; I urge you to support the troops and the veterans no matter what country your in. Kat is the daughter of a Vietnam Veteran and almost married a man from the army (personal reasons why they broke up, had nothing to do with the military). She will be the first to tell you that it doesn't matter if their active or its been years, PTSD which is combat related is hard on the soldier and their family. Please, check out Battling Bare and the other sites they support. Also, if you would like other ways to support your troops, look up Military SOS as well.

Note: The above poem was written by Kiri Minney, the owner of this character and this blog. Please let me know if you wish to put it up on your webpage or for anything else.
Oh and small note again: This also goes out to all of Otherkind and their warriors! =^.^=
