Yes ... you are!

Six million Jews.

Yes … you are!

 

The bloody earth of Rwanda,

Yes … you are!

 

I am no Milosevic,

Yes … you are!

 

More than 1.02 billion hungry,

Yes … you are!

 

47 million Americans without health care,

Yes … you are!

 

131,000 homeless veterans,

Yes … you are!

 

Am I my brother’s keeper?

I was wondering where you were going with the "Yes ... you are!" and love poems that keep my interest until revealing their intent at the end.

Maybe?

[An Ordinary Woman]

I think the right answer is, "It depends who ya ask." Powerful stuff Blue Guy. Anytime we can make others think is great thing!

[Tommy]

Wow! This piece is powerful. I think the real answer is, Yes we are!
Great piece of passion.

An interesting and poignant piece for sure. I had to read this over three or four times until I was confident that I truly got the full impact of things...in the end, I think this was nicely done. The last line really sums it all up for me.

[Deaths Cold Kiss]
