NO MORE WAR! Patriarchy Has Sown Destruction Long Enough! Women must have the same Rights as men! Freedom, Equality, and Justice are for ALL People! Democracy is for ALL People! The time of the nurturing healing feminine energy has come. We must all, female and male, become healers. Peace love and understanding are not dirty weak words. Peace love and understanding are essential to our survival. Rather than viruses let us be healers, nurturers, gardeners dwelling harmoniously with each other, with Mother Earth. Let us remember the heart. Let us practice resurrection. These are the messages I receive from 100 SENRYU AGAINST WW3 by Greece's brilliant International Beat Poet Laureate Chryssa Velissariou! Her new book of poems and art is a treasure beyond measure.
--Ron Whitehead, U.S. National Beat Poet Laureate
