May the bruin God of bears bless that amazing animal
( he's buried in one of our local cemeteries which we'll be visiting soon ) so I'll pass on your praises- wonder if he had given the fags and beer up before he popped off to Teddy heaven?

Ta for remembering him JC

I speak as if
I know the truth,
yet daren’t reveal,
and stand aloof;
my lips stay sealed
for fear my truth
is too far-fetched.
still, I’ll maintain
THEIR truth is stretched!

Thank you Tom,

It seems I have broken a promise. It was my intention to write only one remembrance poem this year, I wrote and posted " Poplars in November" on 24 Nov this year:

https://wolfgarwords.com/2024/10/24/poplars-in-november/

In the time between then and today I could not supress historical thoughts of how my own experiences caused the suffering of those closest to me.

On remembrance day I find myself thinking of the surviving living as much as the dead. I also contemplate how we will undoubtedly repeat our mistakes, this unfortunate reality makes a lie of much of remembrance.

I have the upmost respect for all who have sacrificed and all who truly remember. I have no respect for those in power who have access to avenues other than conflict yet move to war, those who mascarade in remembrance yet fail to heed the warning of "Never Again"

Tom One of my customers told me this story and insisted that it is true.
She said that they never did find the body.

My dad did suffer from disobedient leg syndrome, so I can sympathise with you (or your missis Uilleam).
Glad you enjoyed Trevor.

@Uilleam Ó Ceallaigh You're absolutely right; it’s both devastating and infuriating. The lack of response from those in power and the selective narratives in the media only add to the injustice and suffering. The actions by activists at Columbia University are a powerful statement, honoring Hind Rajab and standing in solidarity with countless others affected by this ongoing crisis. Thank you for highlighting this, and for your support in keeping these important conversations alive.

Thank you, Yanma. A heart-breaking subject.
The silence of abject cowards in the UK government and in the duplicitous media are in part responsible for the unfolding horror of which Hind Rajab is just one victim.
Brave Pro-Palestinian activists at New York City’s Columbia University have renamed its Hamilton Hall “Hind’s Hall”.
