Like your poem, much sympathy has been shown for those 22 victims of senseless "martyrdom." But I thought you are writing about the millions of children starving, being forced to work, or worse throughout the world.
What the bombing in Manchester does is increase worldwide awareness that atrocity like this, like the use of gas to indiscriminately kill innocents, will not be tolerated by the larger world. And, we have to somehow improve the psychology of why people who are disaffected, stigmatized or otherwise treated badly who were once innocent children, turn into suicidal monsters willing to take others with them to their death.
A further collection of poems, many from years in the Middle East, but also the California San Francisco and Central Coast areas (Santa Cruz, Carmel, Big Sur, Berkeley, etc.).
