OUR DUDE in Europe, dave delacroix; Mariupol, Ukraine: "Ballet-lessons."
SING ME a Mariupol, a Port for St.Mary. a DEVASTATION UN-known. Sing me an AUSHWITZ, a Treblinka, a HOLIDAY-CAMP, the kind barbarians CREATE, Man on MAN? Sing me a Song of SPRING where the kids, happily, go mindless, BLINDLY into an ADULT World?
Sing me a Song of MARY, or that KID, a body, lying in the ADULTS war-torn debris? Naturally, we must CANCEL her BALLET-lessons, let her School-chums know, she-s gone away? And that "almost" Boy-friend she had? (We-ll whisper to his parents?)...in MARIUPOL.
SING ME a song of MARIUPOL. I sing for a 12 yr old. Forgetting is a Crime. Her picture-books, her laptop, her wishes/asperations!!!!....Sing THIS SONG of Mariupol when YOU try to sleep at Night. For WHO goes gently INTO this good night? Possibly, not You! NO LOGIC can redeem your WAR-throat-intention or the PERSON U thought U knew?
