fallen leaves
separates my hermitage
further and further

“Humanity needs to weep and this is the time to weep…
Even today, after the second failure of another world war, perhaps we can speak of a third war, one fought piecemeal, with crimes, massacres, destruction…
War is irrational: its only plan is to bring destruction: it seeks to grow by destroying…
Greed, intolerance, the lust for power. These motives underline the decision to go to war and they are too often justified by an ideology.”
