We've trudged through dusty classrooms, yearning
For wisdom...

2017 - year zero

They loaned to the poor, who cannot repay.
They stole from the old, who cannot recover.

and sufficiently
and justly

multicultural communion,
we share a preference for deep
rich soil

In a hellish nightmare pit, soldiers stand...
Along the Western Front's cruel, jagged land,
Where blood and tears paint the earth's sad lore,
