Civil War


Brother versus brother.

Fields stained with blood.

Father versus son.

Soulless corpses of young and old.

Uncle versus nephew.

Generals fighting for something they do not believe in.

Cousin versus cousin.

Dodging bullets.

Friend versus friend.

Men in grey and blue lamenting the loss of a brother in grey and blue.
