First Confirmation (Free verse) by babyBOOMER

~ December 15, 1968 ~ today i was confirmed no holy water, no feast no parties, not even a priest nothing really reaffirmed except an affirmative congratulations were in order as the general order of the day but no priests were present to allow me to pray for a soul that went to someplace what religion is this? ~ There were no beers at least for a while he looked like a man though was probably a child confirmation! It had been confirmed and now inscribed just for the record a permanent record written in my head one confirmed one more dead ~ Why i wonder is the date so hard to forget i just can't relate days had turned to time that did not move i was only 20 years old how old was he? did he have a family? it could have been the other way around i could have been the confirmed kill ~ Screams of joy went out pats on the back i did not see his face another displaced should there be a celebration? at confirmations there ought to be a relation but they were like brothers to me i wish i could close my eyes and not see ~ no burial no words no funeral nothing they just walked away but i cannot walk i remember too much of confirmation day ~

WHAT DO YOU THINK THE "CHANGE YOUR NAME" FEATURE IS FOR? WELL? WHAT DO YOU THINK IT IS FOR? FOR FUN? FOR MAKING YOUR NAME HUGE AND RED AND SCROLLING AND LINKED TO WWW.TUBGIRL.COM? THAT'S RIGHT. BUT IT IS ALSO FOR CHANGING YOUR NAME SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO REGISTER MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS. ALSO "THOM" IS A VERY PRETENTIOUS NAME AND I DISLIKE IT. BYE.
