Poetry – Adrian Mitchell – To whom it may concern (tell me lies about Vietnam)
A powerful and needed video. The truth is needed.
A friend sent me this link to this incredibly powerful poem by Adrian Mitchell that he read at the Royal Albert Hall in 1965 at the International poetry convention. It was good to see Allen Ginsberg in the audience.
Vietnam and now Syria – quite the same

Yes, I agree. Wars are always with us. It is sad what we left for our children. A mess.
