In our time

While the bombardment was knocking the trench to pieces at Fossalta, he lay very flat and sweated and prayed oh jesus christ get me out of here. Dear Jesus please get me out. Christ please please please christ. If you’ll only keep me from getting killed I’ll do anything you say. I believe in you and I’ll tell everybody in the world that you are the only thing that matters. Please please dear jesus. The shelling moved further up the line. We went to work on the trench and in the morning the sun came up and the day was hot and muggy and cheerful and quiet. 

The next night back at Mestre he did not tell the girl he went upstairs with at the Villa Rossa about Jesus. And he never told anybody.

Should I stay or should I go?

The Clash were an English punk rock band that formed in 1976. They succeeded in the United Kingdom with their first album, The Clash, in 1977. Their third album, London Calling (1979), was declared the best album of the 1980s by Rolling Stone magazine.

Punk rock is a music genre that developed in the 70s in the United States, the United Kingdom, and Australia. Punk rock was about making the music you wanted and rejecting what might be considered normal or accepted. Punk rock was also an attitude and a style of freedom and honesty.

Other punk rock bands were The Ramones, in New York City, and The Sex Pistols, in London.
