EXCERPT from "Midnight Voices and Other Poems" (see July 7, 2007 Post at desiderata2000.blogspot.com:) by Desiderata-YL Chong + Companion Essay POETRY as a Special Medium of Communication; published April 2007; pages 89 and 90:
In April/ May 2003 at the height of the US-led war on Iraq, my thoughts went back to the ‘60s, when the Vietnam War took a heavy toll on both Americans and Vietnamese, and the rumination inspired the following poem:
Warfront Faraway
Warfront Faraway
The United States and allies have been
Raining missiles on Iraq for eight days now
Targetting a tyrant called Saddam Hussein"
Raining missiles on Iraq for eight days now
Targetting a tyrant called Saddam Hussein"
Vox populi, vox Dei
The voice of the people is the voice of God
Lux et veritas
Light and Truth
