August 01, 2006 – Pome: What good is outrage

Posted by: octobervine on: August 1, 2006


What good is outrage when the deed is done

When my children are all dead and gone

What good is saying never again

When our lives will go cheap in the next bargain

What good are the talks of peace

When our very existences are required to cease

First line from Pierre Tristam’s article ‘Massacres at Qana:When “Never Again” Needn’t Apply to Lebanon’. See link.

Indeed … too true …

I like your painting, Maysun… it reflects your mood, also your poetry… Yes, may there be real peace soon.

i agree with your poem….btw love the painting too!

The Point

A fine wine, if not maintained at the correct temperature, can deteriorate into a famous whine.
