a great write rula

one small thing

‘but rather a wounded Man’
might read better as ‘human’ instead of ‘man’
it just make it more ‘all’ so to speak, and reminds the reader we are all of one species
- more so as you have used ‘man in the previous line…

well said

"mad man" the old colonialism of the crown
where men did all the over lording
not that long ago... a hundred years and some

and most "crimes" of horrific nature were and still
are committed by men by the vast majority although
women are getting equal here..But even the jetliner
crash of September was done by men

the wounded human line was great
as it speaks to the empathy response from most
readers

it is nice to read poetry coming from a man or womans
viewpoint.. I used to read many books about men
written by women and they captured the comraderie
well the fears and nuances

the old class system
the ruling elite have the money
and the poor can eat grass

Thank You

Believe it or not most in the west realize that most Arabs would prefer peace to conflict. But the so-called Arab spring has been hijacked by extremists just as happened in Iran. We Are confounded by the silence with which moderate Arabs greet the atrocities commited by fanatics though. To the poem........The line "though I have it almost seldom" needs a bit of work. Maybe drop almost or say though I seldom have it.
