So good, Bill. Tragic.

Sad commentary on the never-ending political battles vying for power while the people suffer and sadly, die.

It is a good poem, Bill. But I don't think it's angry enough. Listen to Johnny Cash sing 'Rusty Cage' and even Dylan's more gentle 'A Hard Rain's Gonna Fall'

Yeah, you're right, Chuck. Not nearly angry enough. The toll continues. A hard rain is falling.

Yes, yes, the heat isn’t high enough, the land isn’t dry enough, our hearts are not vulnerable enough, nothing is enough. This poem, is enough, because it speaks for us what is impossible, absolutely IMPOSSIBLE to fucking comprehend. Thank you dear Bill.
