in these times

A reader has sent the following searing comment on Pankaj Chaturvedi's poem At Such A Time As This that appeared on this blog a few days ago. It is being published separately here so that the readers may not miss it. The comment with its poem has what I can only term as atomic economy:



i am a son of an infantryman. i was also infantry. i have 2 of my children,who have done 2 deployments each to america's "wars"


in these times
money talks
hands listen
our children
pay
for our
silence
