    Fine poem, and far reaching in scope. Makes me think of how key players might know something subjects do not, especially in conflict.

    yeah...similar resonance...the more things change the more they stay the same...again and again...

    The whole world's a stage...and in these days, not one I'm especially proud to stand on. Until we all clue in to how we can end the suffering, we will constently be subjected to repeat performances. Great take on an equally inspiring photo.

    The whole work is loaded with double entendre and more. A metaphor for what's gained and lost and who has to pay. Excellent.

    I agree with flaubert. This really sums something up.
    It was kind of you to find amusement in my cod Shakespeare based on the same picture.

    I like the end line that says "where the decimated stage upon which they stand tends to hold repeat performances." It's just so true. The world just keeps on going and going and you hear one atrocity after another and seemingly nothing changes.....beautifully written....
