This poem definetly is talking about the worry that this man is feeling becuase he doesn't want these kids to grow-up thinking that American soldiers are the evil ones because thats what he is.

The notion of each side thinking they're right (which drives them to fight) is completely correct. That's why I think it's impossbile to win a war based on religious beleifs. Both sides have their own beleifs that they see as "correct" and no matter how much brute force you use you're not going to convince them otherwise. You can't defeat a beleif or idea.Cody Dederichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02513143570103833785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2466713767419118023.post-70546665382605731202008-12-03T14:11:00.000-06:002008-12-03T14:11:00.000-06:00I agree with you, Erin: this is a great, powerful ...I agree with you, Erin: this is a great, powerful short poem. I think you get a key idea on this poem, that of perspective. Everyone has a tendency to see things from one's own point of view; this is particularly true during wars.<BR/><BR/>Nice post on this!Mr. Kunklehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06045004383916643468noreply@blogger.com
