I Ran Though the Woods...About to Make My Final Stand

Submitted by Patti Magoon on September 19, 2008 - 11:30.

Like a foreign infiltrator, I was in for a lifetime of woes, that is if I did not make my final stand here. A foreign infiltrator was one way to describe me; I just liked to refer to myself as "one with a better idea of how the empire should be run." My insight could cost me my life.
