Volker Dreams Again
The day has awakened; the giant come.
The cry to charge!
A flury of action. There is no thought; only action. Was it a misstep? I
have been seen...........
.......... I awake in the dark. "Well son you're a quick one." "Yes brother
that was very bright. Did you learn nothing?"
"Aye, never attack the giant from the front!" I feel a rough pat on my back.
"But a job done is a job well done."
Now that I think back it was several rough pats on my back. It is Talen.
When did that boy get so strong? Wait, my ribs are cracked; several of them.
Again I lay infirmed.
But as Helen always said "Boy, if you're not sore you must not have joined in the fight!"
