   This is a repost from Jan 07. I love this piece of art. I was searching images for an appropriate pictue to accompany the poem when I was stunned by it. I consider myself very lucky to have found it and privileged to have permission to exhibit it.

   In an Utopian world, rape wouldn’t even be in our vocabulary. Unfortunately, many countries rape other countries for their resources.

   Moving words qazse. I admire cats like you who can distill a 5,000 word political diatribe into a short poem. Did you hear the Supreme Court denied damage awards to rendition torture victims? And the U.S. government wonders why the World hates them. Go figure, right?

   johnnypeepers, thanks for the complement.

   RE the SuperConstitutional Court – it would be very dangerous to award damages, the government might then be forced to stop breaking the law. We wouldn’t want that now, would we johnny me boy.
