Very powerful, Jay!


Children, babies, toddlers slaughtered by war and occupation is a fact the masses bury in a deep, dark hole and try to cover or fill in with mindless visual nothingness...I've been trying to write a poem today about the very young killed by drone strikes; have a collection of similar work on the subject of the forgotten ones...You write so hauntingly and vividly in this vein (as you do many others too) and I hope people read and think about what is done in their names...

Jay...

You make us stop and think with your poetry, and that's always a good thing...some very real sarcasm here, tough and convicting, too...

the world is not always a pretty place. Not everything that happens is

Lolypops and candy. Write it as you see. Poetry should make a person feel something. And I personally find little laugh about when i look at the world which is actually looking back at us.

No not all things are nice Jay. Sometimes we have to pretend they are or we would go starkers.
