The world spins further into turmoil, its innocence bludgeoned by greed and power. People terrorised by those who cannot/will not respect life. Nightly news, flashes of pain and suffering. The idealistic child stands amidst the rubble and demands to know why!
Why do we hate so much?
Why are we so zealous in our need to destroy, to corrupt, to subjugate?
Why cannot we live together, peacefully?
No answers are forthcoming; the child stands alone as the world slowly crumbles.
