A stunning earth poem, Shaun, and heart-breaking in its reflection of the current world situation, especially the ‘raining of boots’ and the alliterative ‘mud made men without meaning’. The final stanza is chilling.
Indeed. I remind myself that things are getting better for a majority of people and perhaps, just perhaps, a new enlightenment of kindness and morality is developing.
