Buy and Send to Each of Your Congressmen,
By Kenneth J. Atchity "Story Merchant" (Dappertutto) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cry Out: Poets Protest the War (Paperback)
This slim volume is eloquent testimonial to the flame of integrity and goodness that burns in the heart of our culture--a flame that seems to be both absent and ignored in the halls of Congress, where legislators today jockey for sexual or financial favors while the world is jeopardized from global warming, the incursions of terrorists, and bombs falling in places where words should fall instead: "Poetry really does matter," writes Jay Parini, "and it matters most in these times of peril. As Auden said, 'All i have is a voice to undo the folded lie.' And that's what we're working for, we're working to undo that folded lie. Whether it is one of Ruth Stone's Mantras, Pablo Neruda's "Gautama Christ," or "Message from the Hopi Leaders," these are poems that proclaim, "All we are saying is give peace a chance."
