I work in crisis care in law enforcement, trained extensively in debriefing following an officer-involved critical incident. Additionally I am a published poet, and see myself in the mold of the warrior poets of old. Perhaps that is fanciful. If so, I will keep my illusion. It's cheaper than therapy. Had you seen the things I've seen, you'd find a pressure release too. Walking among the headstones helps keep perspective, don't you agree? They remind me that we are all on a shorter tether than it would seem.
