Civilization is a war

Writing poetry is it like a diary?

It’s not written by my conscious self yet when I read my writing I recognize myself.

Sometimes I amuse myself

It makes me happy or angry or sad

When I can’t do it I feel deprived but sometimes I can’t tune in

Maybe I don’t have the energy for it.

Sometimes I’m very surprised by what I’ve written it hardly believe that I wrote it.

The something about the present world that’s not good for writing

Where there a wars in other countries that I was here between fellow countrymen between friends

130,000 people were killed when in the bombing of Dresden but  how many people think about that now

That can be a joy in destruction if you feel you have an excuse for it but those were all people human beings children trying to find some shelter from the war

How many died in the Bosnian war in 1995? It’s not just the numbers it’s the way in which it was done.

It’s the Us and Them that’s so dangerous

Pray father give me your blessing

Through my fault through my fault through my most grievous fault.
