Laby Liberty

 "And my Sisters & Brothers"

dreams destroyed

 "Lo, there do I see my mother."

its not fair

the life we bear

yet our needs are met

though we soon forget

bombs falling like rain

lives snuffed out like a flame

dreams destroyed

so we can have more toys

war only leads to war

whose appetite is only more & more

just to crown a king eternal

of a graveyard sempiternal

or my joy and gladness

 "Lo, there do i see my father." 

hello

my dear fellow

what brings you by?

passing the time?

im glad you are here

to share in my fear

or my joy and gladness

or perhaps my madness

this will stay

when all else passes away

my diary will become

history to some
