Reflection is good, so is introspection and realisation. But if we dont’ make all those things galvanise us, then Vivi’s poem is just another twig cut into our river of conscience.

You always delight me with your wordplay.
Oops, delight – only at the wordplay and not at the material.
Thanks

It’s writing like this that makes me realize how much of our own humanity we’ve lost – without even knowing it. Piercingly beautiful. Achingly sad. Thanks for this, Vivi.
