Hi,

Nice one!

How quickly we forget the caution .....
''Let he without sin cast the first stone.''

There is not one nation on earth that is entirely
squeaky clean.

Well sometimes you can get your point across in a matter of words, rather than a long rambling.
Guess this proves exactly that point.

interesting subject. I'm pleased I came across your poem.
the last line should be a quote... it's that good!
it's shocking how that last line is so true in a way,
how only one voice can 'brainwash' thousands.
scary thought....

take care

Sometimes the simplest of words can have powerful meanings. Short and sweet. I love it.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
