I saw battle-corpses, myriads of them,
And the white skeletons of young men-I saw them;
I saw the debris and debris of all the dead soldiers of the war;
But I saw they were not as was thought;
They themselves were fully at rest-they suffered not;
The living remained and suffered-the mother suffered,
And the wife and the child, and the musing comrade suffered,
And the armies that remained suffered.
Walt Whitman

Bo Lozoff
-
Mindful and creative, a child who has neither a past, nor examples to follow, nor value judgments, simply lives, speaks and plays in freedom.
