A Poem of the Earth's Last Days

September 12, 2010

A Poem of the Earth's Last Days for Terry Collett, Richard Lynn Livesay, Rene Allen, wendy c. i. That beast wretched Blame the foul monster With distaste for love It’s Satan’s terror o’er all earth Furious with His incarnation Invents new strategy for nuclear war New weapons, new nuclear plants New operative plans empowering extremist nations Where terrorism is a divine signal Where the young suicide bombers are brainwashed A blow to the lamb. No. ii. Now Christ thee save, Thou reverent believer! I pray, O Lord Let not the Devil kill The faithful with truest heart Let no radiation paralyze them iii. Our lord won’t allow extinction of earth In one moment millions will disappear The sun and moon will be darkened As we have sinned And divine wrath will devour us In such tribulation Prince of Peace Coming on the clouds of heaven Protects the faithful and believers All were swept away By the...

War is the Business of Barbarians

No doubt, war is the science of destruction. This is confirmed by the recent Iraq war and the ceaseless violence in Libya. The First World War (1914-1918) was fought on a scale unprecedented in any previous century. The Battle of Verdun between France and Germany caused 700000 casualties. A total of about 40 million artillery shells were exchanged by both sides. The moral lesson is quite clear that the Great War was a blunder and a crime. It is high time that the great nations calmed down again and occupied themselves with peaceful pursuits, and destroyed all nuclear weapons. Wilfred Owen (1893-1918), the Soldier poet who was killed in World war I, reveals the futility of war in his immortal line: “Was it for this the clay grew tall?" Edward Grey remarked: “The lamps are going out all over Europe; we shall not see them lit again in our lifetime” (July 1914). The eastern battles the Great War were useless and stupid from the military point of view. The omino...

Toward Total Peace

September 01, 2010

Toward Total Peace The word ''Christianity'' is already a misunderstanding -- in reality there has been only one Christian, and he died on the Cross. -Friedrich Nietzsche i. No more my Muse roves ‘Mongst shady groves Verdant hills Terrorism, tyrant laws rule the day No room for sacred Muse, farewell! My soul, turn toward Faith and reason Sing “Amen! Come, Prince of Peace.” ii. Hearing in dream archangel’s voice And God’s trumpet I sing ‘I am ascending to my Father’. Call on jesus You will be saved Ever be on His side Or you will be trampled on by Satan Lament for war-guilty, blood-stained earth The hounds are again in view ‘Tis I to the nuclear powers appeal Don’t destroy sweetest joy Of love and peace iii. Time’s on the wing Destroy nuclear weapons now Peace admits of no delay How dearly I would love nuclear free earth How dearly I would love thee Nuclear weapon is a vice Most stubborn th...

Thalassemia

North America Thalassemia can be devastating for us. You are perhaps familiar with the fact that this dangerous disease leads to blood disorder and anemia. As the bone marrow fails to produce the proteins that are indispensable for the hemoglobin. In this grim situation a person is tormented and afflicted with thalassemia. It is well-known that this disease is hereditary, and it is often due to cross marriages. Prevention is better than cure, and the most prudent step is to avoid marriage with persons suffering from this disease. Recently an important seminar about Thalassemia was held at Unpad Learning Hospital. Vice Governor of West Java and Thalassemia Ambassador, Dede Yusuf pointed out that West Java in Indonesia has a very large number of thalassemia patients. “Attention from various parties is required for early thalassemia screening and detection. Screenings should start in villages and campuses”. The consequences of this disease can be very severe. Th...

P.B. Shelley's Greatest Poetic Drama

Prometheus Unbound is a four-act play by the greatest Romantic poet P. B. Shelley. The play opens a Ravine of Icy Rocks in the Indian Caucasus. PROMETHEUS is discovered in chains bound to the Precipice. Prometheus is tormented by Zeus. Ultimately, Prometheus is liberated. He is a symbol of the liberation of mankind. He may be described as the correct manifestation of the highest moral and intellectual nature. He is often compared with Satan in Milton’s Paradise. But we should remember that he is devoid of any feeling of revenge or envy that we find in Satan. Shelley himself says: “Prometheus is, in my judgment, a more poetical character than Satan, because, in addition to courage, and majesty, and firm and patient opposition to omnipotent force, he is susceptible of being described as exempt from the taints of ambition, envy, revenge, and a desire for personal aggrandizement, which, in the hero of Paradise Lost, interfere with the interest.” This book reveals Shelley’s revolutiona...
