order

and keeping

who is speaking?
this question at least
as urgent as the other
more often asked,
on what they say.

who is living?
who is allowed
or encouraged
to die?

each at least
as critical as
the issue
of how.

I keep watch and listen, mostly in dark places.

  1. chrisnelson61 – Stourbridge, UK – Chris Nelson was born in East Anglia, but grew up in Birmingham when his family relocated when he was still a young child. After leaving school he studied computing at what was then Wolverhampton Polytechnic, before deciding that it was not a career path he wanted to follow. He retrained as a teacher and has taught in a primary school in Dudley since the mid 1980's. He has dabbled in writing short stories since his youth, but has began writing more seriously since the turn of the century. He lives in Stourbridge with his wife and two children.
