<PERSON>
on impulse. maybe that's how all wars start.
all you innocent boys... they take you away and kill you in war.
this illusion of youth. smoking to impress your friends, until you learn that they're already on the next level and quit before the habit. but there's a shortage of food. the uncertain future of your ill friend. 352
fraught romances, impossible love and silent taboos. children waving the flag of japan transforming into soldiers in imperial uniform with powdered white faces. and then japan bombs pearl harbor. the fading of youth somehow an encroaching of death. presence being wiped away from photos. a young girl's death that of the nukes dropping.
one day, i hope people will stop killing each other. 352
