Father Dearest. Poem by Tom Higgins
Father Dearest.
What kind of father can he be
Who watches his children
As they try to flee
From the carnage of the war
Yet then behaves as if
He never ever saw
Anything as starvation
Overwhelms them
In their war-torn nation,
Or as diseases
Rampage and kill
It seems he does not
Have the will
To prevent any of this,
Right down through history.
He is indeed the greatest
Ever 'mystery.'
