In Times of War - Rebecca del Rio

[Larry Robinson]

In Times of War
"The most urgent war is always the one fought at home.” 
	Elizabeth Gilbert, The Signature of all Things


In times of war,
Which is, to say, all times,
It's best to stay
here, live where
the fighting is not.
From here, it is easy
to opine, commit men,
women and wealth.

Think and pray,
Isn’t that what 
We’re good at? 

Send money
Send blankets
Sympathy and medicine.
Send weapons, many weapons. 


	- Rebecca del Rio
