This part of Jane Dougherty Writes A Month With Yeats.
Rules and Pingback Here
The blood dimmed – Tide is loosed and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned.
The time has gone.
Throw open the gates,let in the water.
Pay no heed to the colour there is no return.
Let it all in,the red tide
The conflagration started we shall all burn.
Dash down the borders, useless. No place to hide.
We shall all drown, all is lost.
We took our eyes off the ball
The wars never stop, we pay such a cost.
Throw open the gates, break down the walls.

There is such a contrast between the frantic call in your poem and the photo of the placid dog in the header. We have really lost it, haven’t we?

Yes sadly we have, Trump, Kim Jong Um, Putin and Jeremy Corbin the four Horsemen of the Apocalypse!

You set Jeremy Corbin’s capacity to do damage very high! He’s not even a pimple on Trump’s backside 🙂

I totally agree but just needed four idiots to site! 😱💜

You can have Marine Le Pen if you want. I’ll even gift-wrap her for you 🙂

Yes or Angela Merkel maybe 😱💜
Nov 09, 2017 @ 12:15:18
Angela Merkel is at least a political brain. MLP knows as much about economics as our cat.
Nov 09, 2017 @ 12:38:07
Yes and no doubt your cat knows a little more 😁
Nov 09, 2017 @ 12:40:51
She doesn’t look for patriotic stickers on the tins of cat food 🙂

“Throw open the gates, break down the walls.” – let’s hope so.
