Hecuba.(Scene After Benazir's Funeral Comments

Margery, this is powerful writing, willed with drama and tension. When I read the title, I was reminded of Hamlet's soliloquy in response to the First Player's speech in Hamlet: '..and all for nothing. For Hecuba. What's Hecuba to him or he to Hecuba that he should weep for her? ' BB? Not sure who he/she is, but then my knowledge of Greek mythology is limited I'm afraid. What I am sure of is that your poem shares to great effect, the dramatic tension of a memorable, stirring scene. Excellent writing - but then who would expect anything else from a fine poet like you? love Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Cut off from all by her sorrow-
