Euphoria and Other Poems - 5. Chapter 5

In whose name do they kill, Cows who rejoice in the blood of the proletariat...  This is a stunning and powerful indictment, rich in metaphor and scorn. You predict their end, their destruction - and if words could do this, your poem would have accomplished it.

What I appreciated about this collection (among other things) is that you are very honest about the suffering and injustice you see and shed light on it through poetry. A few lines that left the greatest impression on me: "Drench away the sorrow of lost Men who silently prayed for Deliverance amongst the tyranny" and "Unhinged from reality they fight Over old dusty tomes devoid of Humanity’s creed-less dread." 

Thank you for this share. If you have more work, I'll be sure to read those as well.

I see a deliberate, forceful mix of East-West here. The phrase 'holy cow' is often reduced to comic status in English nowadays, but it began as a straightforward reference to one of the manifestations of Hinduism. Here the image of them in heaven watching the carnage of the sacking of the Bastille is the marriage of Eastern sensibilities with Western history. 

The message of the poem is a good one; violence only begets chaos. 

Thanks for sharing this collection with us.
