Imagine



It was this video, and in particular Yoko One casting open the shutters, that prompted the room imagery in my poem. The challenge I speak to is how to actually make peace happen. Nearly 33 years after his death, we still live in such a turbulent world.

His 72nd birthday was on October 9th 2012, so I dedicated my song poem in memory of him and his moving, timeless classic.
