“Children first” was simply an utterance. You know why because it is the Middle East Where life falls like autumn leaves. A place where by design and default People lives are regarded as short beautiful lines...heart felt and deeply touching.... sat

Oh this is really impressive.......... Very good questions to be asked from polititians, or from the pioneers of 'DEMOCRACY' / 'HUMAN RIGHTS. Robbers who theft African, Asian and American Continents 2-6 centuries ago, now have become Pioneers of world Democracy. Dump their excess crops into the ocean... despite of millions stay in starvation. This reality is understood by only a few.

A real cry of desperation.There is no waiting for some else to bring justice, equality and freedom if a person has the courage to bring it about starting within their own mind.Ever hear the reggae tune Promised Land? You can find it on youtube.com.Very thought provoking poem.

This is a beautiful poetic analysis of the prevailing situation in today's Middle East.... This is praiseworthy - the EFFORT..... one has to start working and stop talking! Good work, well written! 10 of course!
