Battle of Vukovar

[Ranjr]

I was born in a town called Hope. Extremely ironic name for the events that occur there.  I've written about it in a style mixing southern gothic and magical realism.  You know what the ironic name has to do with the events that occur there?  Nothing.  We can look at those events and say, how ironic that they occurred in Hope.  But it's absolutely insane to say such irony means the events didn't happen.

Wow.     Kid, you have a screw loose.  A besieged city by any other name is still a besieged city.
