The truth of words is never valued until the poet dies, only then does the nation mourn and revere the simplicity, the timing, the passion of that composer of fruit-laden images, whether in war or peace, the poet is there to capture the reflection of their country’s right and wrongs but also to search deep inside for the truth of their existence. If a poet cannot write without unburdening their soul, then how do we expect politicians and generals to be legitimate in their actions and held to account for their own rights and wrongs as they order The Burying Party to stand guard and await the dead they have killed.
