Again a well written poem. I like the images and the resonances. I like the contrast between conflict (war? terrorism?) and normal life maybe even jet set life, rich people, people detached from the reality of war and I like the Bravo comment at the bottom. It is a joker's comment, a jester's poke at the powerful people. I like this poem as it makes one think in many directions. It does not give the game away easily and one can read it at many levels. This is what poetry should be about and this is the way in which it should be written. Bravissimo! I would say.

So much said with so few words. A lot of imagery and thinking created and is provoked by this poem with one word verses. I have just one word to add: Amazing. :)
  Marieta Maglas  (5/17/2009 5:43:00 AM)

An original poem, in which verses contain a single word. For originality 10+

Got the picture. Precise imagery; displays typical attitude of humans. Again simplicity reigns.
  Adeline Foster  (4/30/2009 5:05:00 PM)

A very clever poem. Well done.
