Three good writes I identify with the first that just seems to be part of me. The second there is no prejudice in a foxhole and religion united by the sword. The third where opinions not realities when it comes to perception and values. Lovely Kurt

A sense of being pulled helplessly in the the first poem and the knowledge that time will work out the truth in the end in the second. Very nicely put in poetic form Kurt

Very nice Kurt yes in hunting that was a rule to hunt the hunter you must become him. This works as a metaphor as well and loved the word play on prey
