Artist's Comments

This is a picture of Arlington National Cemetary. I guess the title speaks for itself. Being there made me sad, there were headstones as far as the eye could see, some of them saying only "Infant." If you want some background info, let me know.

Please full view.

EDIT: There seems to be some confusion. This isn't a cemetary for any old dead people. It's for soldiers who died fighting in battle or casualties of war. Now, since it's filling up, you have to have done something extraordinary to be buried there.

You get it now? This is anti-war.

I think that death is a concept that I'm not prepared to understand.

Oh. Yeah. Some of these are really old. It's shocking to be there. I was in one little section and there were graves as far as I could see.
