This is pain that cannot be localised or rationalised. Have found Australian poets I follow are safe for now. Those that can in NZ are either over there helping fight fires or opening homes for them in NZ to give respite or raising money. Reading great book called Books for living by Will Schwalbe. Don't know if available in libraries. Stay staunch at this time. Regards as always David in NZ

David, my kind friend. So good to hear from you, a well-informed person who cares about the wellness of others. Happy to hear all you have to say yet the problem is universal. When the part suffers the whole suffers thus it is a problem it should concern all of us! Thank you for caring!
