We are like that Amnesic man
who forgets his name every morning.
What we read now in the newspaper
has happened even millenia back -
the crosshatched maps,
the disputed crosshatchs,
the Caesars, Cleopatras,
the gladiators, and colisiums.
We are the raindrops that sway free
without any political opinion,
the victims of our own inertness,
and howl when everything turns
violently visible and alive.
Please tell me what you think

Ain't it the truth. Same Stuff, Different Millennium.

Don't forget to add your theme and POM to your author's notes.....
This is so true - we only repeat history over and over and over - and don't really seem to learn much at all! Such a shame.
best wishes in the contest.

This made me think of elections....each vying for recognition and promising the earth, until duly elected, changing their stance, breaking promises. Bravo and good luck in the contest
