THE WARTIME ISSUE E. Ethelbert Miller   THOSE SEINFELD DAYS WHEN NOTHING HAPPENS EXCEPT I LOVE YOU ..........for WR Even on bad days you're the only good news. I'm too old to be interested in panda bears. I no longer care which neighborhood is safe. The weather is dark. Sports always finds me trying to rally from an affair. Then there is you—my anchor in this world. I wish lifeboats were kisses. Maybe the next time you cut your hair the war will be over. Soldiers will return home. I'll fight my heart and try to love again.     E. Ethelbert Miller is the chair of the board of the Institute for Policy Studies (IPS) and the director of the African American Resource Center at Howard University. His last book was How We Sleep on the Nights We Don't Make Love. Published in Volume 7, Number 2, Spring 2006.   Read more by this author: E.
