Like many men, I am tired and worn out fighting the battles alone. Even though there are no battles and the only enemy is on the inside. I and my kind have stood alone on the battlements and in the watchtowers waiting for the chance to protect those that never really needed it. The battlements are museums and the watchtowers covered with cobwebs and ivy, but my warrior heart beats for the moment when it would be called forth to fight the good fight. Even though it was never good and there never was ever any good reason to fight. Manipulated by governments and scorned by a public seeing us as dinosaurs, loved and hated as political campaigns and terms of office came and went. ...and yet, there is something noble in a heart like mine. It knows about duty, dependability, courage and honour it just needs re-training for something and someone to serve worth serving. What if that something were the good of the planet and what if that someone was our fellow human? How would the world look then? I am tired of standing alone on an over-populated planet. I am tired of being a man with a thousand expected roles to play but only one heart to beat for it all. We men, weve lost our role, weve lost our way, we and our mothers in the absence of our fathers self-castrated ourselves and weve lost the true dignity of being a man. All we really wanted, all we ever needed was to be loved for who we were but we were sent out into senseless battles over endless years to fight each other simply to prove we were worth loving. Dead but worth loving! Sent out by those over us that should have known better. Sent out by the rich, the politicians and by the priests to die alone in the corners of some foreign field that will be forever - pointless. Well tired as I am, instead of blaming the world anymore because now Im old enough to know I have a choice, old enough to see through the bullshit Ive been sold as Patriotism or Be a man. I am on my feet and Im looking around for my brothers. We are not alone in how we feel because we have each other. That was the only good thing about serving in uniform; it was the only time we ever felt together and supported Pulling them to their feet standing shoulder-to-shoulder as guardians of the future because without us Consciousness will not get anywhere. So Women Woman, keep encouraging us with your beautiful hearts. Keep calling us to grow. Keep calling us to you because we still somewhere inside believe in you. Keep calling us to come out and play with you. Keep reminding us you want us to be honest more than you want us to be strong. You want us to be loyal to you, to the children and to love more than to Queen or Country. So tired...yes! Given up the good fight...no! Just changing allegiance!
