A poem a friend of mine wrote |
|
How Feebly Do I Cry
How feebly do I cry against this killing of the Spirit, for bombing as we have done is the destruction of our humanity
There are no altars to which we go to pray that can forgive what we have done-- for forgiveness can only be accepted from ourselves
and that is hard to do!
I cannot celebrate the ruins we have made, or the lives we have damaged or destroyed.
So, I shall not dance with Wolfowitz in the streets of his desire-- but kneel where forgiveness may be sought if asked for in a proper way.
Would that “hail marys” would do it, but they won’t.
Only I can stop the pain when I have learned to truly cry and hold all Arab babies in my arms.

I can only imagine what words your friend would write during these times. Sigh...

He's in the club. He's the one who organized the forums I've been sending everyone stuff on.
