Thanks Damian. It’s one my more recent and I was trying to stay close to meter and shorter syllable counts but I like it.

The rhythm of this piece is nice.
I like the first two lines, it’s like you can put it on a loop.-

Thanks Fia.
It’s an older piece and one of my favorites. I’ll be including it when I publish one of poetry books.

Thanks Damian. Sometimes I wish I would have heeded more of her advice, but sometimes we have to learn on our own as well.
Thank you for stopping by, reading and commenting. Always I appreciate your feedback.

Thank you Damian.
It’s an impressionable memory that still seems vivid in my mind from time to time. Either way, I’m glad to be here and share with others.

This had my heart pounding for you. That is something I would never want for anyone to experience in their lives. It does happen though.

Hi Fia,
It all happened so fast and yet the memory of it is still fresh in my mind after so many years. Now that I read books and stories I’m baffled at how bad (or worse) it was for others. There is a movie coming out later this year about one of these massacres. I wrote a piece about it while at DU but I know the movie will tell the heartbreaking story in detail.

Sometimes I’m a little partial to war and the suffering because of it. The futility of the common soldier and civilians. it’s never glamorous and never without suffrage. You wrote it well.

Thank you so much Styxian.
The damage it does to people as a society has long lasting consequences. As I was telling Fia in the previous comment, the movie coming out later this year will tell more of the stories. We must always learn our history to see where we’ve been so we see the signs ahead.
Hope you’re doing well.
