THE EARTH FEELS SAD (Haiku)


World full of hatred

Look how kindness rarely used

Land of cruelty




LIES OF POWER (Haiku) 


Look at our leaders 

Why can't honesty prevail

Truth never shows up




WHAT IS BEING TAUGHT 


The movie had a number of violent scenes. I was surprised to see a couple with two young children sitting near me. It just didn't seem right. I cringed a little each time I saw the violence on the screen knowing that the children were seeing it too. All of a sudden the music and mood changed and there was a very sweet and tender scene showing the two leads kissing. At that point, I saw both parents immediately rush to cover their children's eyes. I nearly cried. Such sad priorities.
