As always, I stand in awe of your writing ... this is a great
tribute to the victims in South Africa, and a powerful commentary on dark side of humanity.

I shivered and got goose-bumps as I read this poem. We all have right to worry for the madness in this world, but I doubt it was god's plan have that included...I think murder and madness comes from our own insecurities. But what do I know! Wonderful write!!

A great write -- powerful, thought-provoking. I share your care and concern for our sisters and brothers of this hate-laden land. Thank you for sharing. Peace, blessings and understanding.

my dear, i am with you in all these agonizing hours of mishap...allow me to give you a copy of my post dated Feb. 18th about our brothers and sisters out there...You wrote your piece excellently my friend...we can only hope people are listening...
Bleeding
Souls
Portrait of blood
Outrageous fear
flood
Life draining
anarchy
Piercing merciless quandary
Entrapped souls in
damnation
Dark garden of pandemonium
People begging for
sanitarium
Leader’s blind
sarcasm
Living in insane continuum
Sinister invasion in
devilish unison
Mirror of life
Of this world’s darkest
pride
People turning blind
spy
Pretending they did
not pry
Of the horrible
scathe before their eyes
Clear water turns to
blood
Laughter’s robbed by
slaughters
Children sabotaged
like chickens
Dinner on the table
Served in colossal
horror
Oh President, Mr.
President!
Can’t you see the
magnanimous detriment
Your country is
drenched of bleeding county
Look out your glass window
Warlocks of god befall
hemorrhaging sparrows
“God
have mercy…”
“People
of South Africa
you are not alone!”
