Why can’t We live together?

Yesterday was Armistice Day. The 11^th minute of 11th day of the 11^th month. The day when the mass slaughter of 8 and a half million soldiers and 13 million civilians ended.  The WW1 poets Rupert Graves, Rupert Brooke, Siegfried Sassoon and Wilfred Owen observed, lamented and died during and after the war to end all wars. Except war didn’t end. Today, on this day of remembrance, I will let the music and words and speak for themselves. Honouring the dead, recognising the sacrifice and most of all, asking why is it happening again?
