Newspeak(s)

It is difficult to get the news from poems yet men die miserably every day for lack of what is found there. --- William Carlos Williams

Tuesday, April 12

Statistics

One hundred women

Playing musical chairs
Dancing nervously
Giddy with tension
Eyes darting
Waiting for band to stop
Who will scramble to happiness?
Who will be left 

Standing in silence?
