• When the tribal groups of december trade
  Seated in the figure of crocodile
  And songs are sung and deals discussed, are made
  Real. All... For more than one reason they smile.
  These codes are writ in secret, feeling fine
  To keep what's private to my self since we
  All must face our maker in our own ryhme
  And reasons for being ( from regrets) free
  So let the memory of your glory
  Be the tenderness heartfelt love starkly
  In the sky of my mind vast and pretty
  Evermore glittering simplicity
  Where in the truth of country grows sober
  And sunshines through fog to radiate wonder

  John Armstrong

• The bitter hatreds that now poison Middle Eastern politics are rooted in the real or perceived wrong of the setting up of a Jewish State in an Islamic region.
