August, a Poem/Spoken Word Piece by Dr Dexter (august.wma)

This is not so much Anti-War as it is a "Measure Before You Make The Cut" piece. It was created as my contribution to an Album produced by "Rhyme'n'Chatt" a Chattanooga, TN Non-Profit Poetic and Spoken Word Association, used to raise money for their programs. I was fortunate to have a good Producer: Mr Carlous Drake, with Music by Permission fromPatrick O'Hearn's Metaphors Album, "Images In Stone", which seemed like it was written for it. The "Tag Line" is the Title of the Ephemeral Book by Barbara Tuchman and is an Homage to her Masterpiece as well. The Poem is a group of conjoined scenes painting the picture of the "Day Before" as the various participants watch the hours count down. Thought Provoking..Enjoy. Dexter
