There comes a point in every life online
When laughter dies. We sense the biting storm
That others feel beyond our virtual home.
The dispossessed cry O for such a voice
But we fall silent, waiting for their word.
The question, my friend, is trembling on their lips –
Our answer still blowing in the wind.
(with apologies to Bob Dylan and the multitudes even he failed)

That’s not ‘picnic on bear mountain’ then?
Nice one Dave – I’m sure Bob will forgive you.

Cheers, Opher … much as I love his recent stuff, it would be good to have a flash of the old protest once in a while. Or have I missed something?

Don’t know about one more line … sounds like an idea for a new poem … about the need for more compassion in the world, perhaps?
