No bodies on the beach today, no poster boys to cry for, but put your cheek to the sand and feel how it trembles with the heat of gunpowder. Caress it with your tongue and taste the salt of tears, the metallic tang of bloodshed. It was carried here in warning, so listen to the sombre song that drifts upon the waves. It speaks of death in the far and distant lands of Other; an unbreakable brand a slave to birth alone.
