» pink101 - How Vain Glorious

In response to How Shameful posted by Migisi:
.
When I was a boy, Rudyard Kipling was in style. He wrote some pretty good stuff. Here is the first verse of his East is East and West is West:
.
"Oh, East is East, and West is West, and never the twain shall meet,
Till Earth and Sky stand presently at God's great Judgment Seat;
But there is neither East nor West, Border, nor Breed, nor Birth,
When two strong men stand face to face,
tho' they come from the ends of the earth!"
.
By the way, the present war was raging then and had been for centuries.
.
Bull roar and clamor that brings death and suffering to us.
.
How vain glorious it is.
