Dagmar,

This really does seem to be the 'brutal reality'. Good to see you with the courage to write and stand up for what you believe in.

How it came to this, I will never know.

Anyway, lovely to read a new poem from you; I've missed your work.

All the best as ever,

Ben

Always good to read a poem from you.

Like Ben, I wonder how it came to this...

Take care,
Em

I hear clearly what you are saying. Like me there are millions who feel the same. God help us all.

Dagmar, It is so scary to think of what the next few might bring. Your write brings this home-well done-

Thank you all very much and this is just the beginning of the end. So very sad.
