As told by Judy Meibach From: Judy Meibach (New York United States; Female; 49) To: Anjali Sinha Date Time: 6/8/2010 11: 58: 00 AM (GMT -6: 00) Subject: Swine Flu I liked the title of this piece - as I realize that the swine flu affects us here in the states as it has affected you down under - your correlation of us as swine was interesting - and the choices of words that you used was great.

Well put! Swine flu has human, pig and bird DNA segments from three continents. So the swine must have invented it! Worth a full score!

this is a great poem about epedemic and pollution. The miracle of the great mother earth is her ability to cope and transform and she has had inhospitable years of barreness and infertility. She has shaken and bled her molten core upon the surface as Pelee' and from her eruptions of temper the islands of paradise arose. Humans can do little to hurt the great mother of us all. After our kind others will come and so on. We are not the worst that has come and the great earth mother will only tolerate our insolence for awhile. We are killing ourselves and future generations and for that the earth mother cries. If you think of the few moments mankind has been here compared to the trillions of moments the earth has been here, we've done nothing to hurt mother earth.

Wow this is good. It sort of goes with what I wrote about in my poem Pollution/Environment. It's time we actually do something not just talk about it. Thanks for the thoughts. I give it a 10.
