Poem -
Even Sadder than That Even
It fell
more silent than the
snow Β Β Β Β
was falling
and lighter than light
even ..
Not to mention sadder
than the
sound and the sight
of those
war ravaged orphan
children
playing in the rubble
and the dust
of some recently
discarded village ..
So now listen voyeur
heed
and take note ..
For there, beside those
dead nurses
and doctors, the sound
and the smell
of your canvass burning
only moments
after being
so delightfully brushed
is a whole
brave new world away ..

Neville, this is a beautiful piece, dark topic but treated with respect andΒ
a touch of metaphysical appeal at the end... world consiousness.. is every ones problem. war is everyone's problem.
loved it
