Term 2 Lesson 2

The picture depicts a soldier, lying on the floor holding a gun. His instincts of a living organism gives hi the longing to shrink himself, to be insignificant. At the same time, his soldier instincts pushes him to put up a brave front. The soldier face is in a mask of horror. It is obvious that he is scared. There is debris lying around him, suggesting that explosives have been used. He is alone. No friends, companions or fellow soldiers surrounding him. Facing your enemies with peers is definitely better than facing it yourself. In every war, the atmosphere would be dense with death and despair.
