There are no arms

Great poem. I know what you mean

Very cool -- you might want to also check out the movie 'The Constant Gardener' for more on this subject. I believe Target now has the DVD on sale for about four dollars. I think that a lot of what "mainstream" medicine is doing now, is tantamount to genocide. In fact, there's a brave Dutch doctor (Matthias Rath) who's actually charged them with that. Thanks for the great poem!

cool

Oh Kira
That was an amazing poem with so much power that I couldn't stop reading.
You illustrate the dilemna of the ones left behind when men (or women) go out and try to help the world.
I'll have to think about this very deeply.
I saw the Constant Gardener mentioned by Visionairie. Waht got to me was not really the story but the backdrops. The teeming masses of poverty stricken helpless hopeless people.
I live in Africa and I know that much much more than individul help here and there is required. One should begin with limiting the birthrate. In that movie you ee that there i no food and no firewood. It's all been chopped doewn and a desert is being created in front of their eyes

I'm asking you this, with deadly earnest, Kira, should your beau not come home and help plan the whole altruistic plan an a large scale, with a full realistic vision and lots and lots of finances and staff.

Then you could go with him and work side by side with him.

Lovely.

thanks for sharing your poem...

Wow... just lovely.
