by George Salamon
All values are fleeing,
there's no home for
them in a world run
by power and money.
Only one principle
remains to which we
owe loyalty, the cry
for help, screamed
or whispered.
If we give aid, arrival
of our downfall may be
delayed.
George Salamon channels Cassandra only once in a while; doing it too often would be too depressing.
