Thanks for your comment. the madness seems to be increasing all over the planet with the Rohinjyas in Myanmar and missile strikes in Pakistan, bombings in Afghanistan on a macro level and barbaric violence against innocent girls in several places in India. People need to channel their rage, their angst, their fears, their hopes through the sublime arts like Poetry and Neopoet is a premier place for poets.
