All Comments on 'Inhumanity'

this is something that is a very sad reality.

sobering time reading poetry today.

ty for this!

... our western justification is more inhuman than the ordinary greed that keeps children as slaves, labouring over a counterfeit Tommy Hilfinger, for example, that, once sold, could feed, shelter and send them to school for a year.

I wondered if we'd hear about child labor! So well done, Lost! Thanks!

... would come to expect of your poetry,

Just brilliant!! ;-)

it didn't take you many words to convey the horror and misery of this situation. Cannibalism comes in many forms...

....Western consmers consider where that doll was maade or under what conditions. How many give a thought to the women locked in a fire trap, sewing jeans. This is a powerful statement for more thought into what we buy.

using de Goya, as a base instead of Rubens, better choice. Very subtle political attack buried here, underneath the horrors of third world labour. Every system carries within it the seeds of its own destruction, and resorts to a form of cannibalism (consumption of its own future) at its end, capitalism being no different. I think this is multileveled, many points for that. Dystopia?

Shopping carts in the river Styx?

....just over 60 words to express so much of the case against greed. Quality writing and compelling reading.

Thank you
