WINDOWS KISS THE SHADOWS OF THE PASSING THIRTY MILLION

This dramatic poem, with its epic scale, was written originally to describe the injustices foisted upon millions of people across Europe's entire history. It evokes people's collective struggles to make a better, fairer and more enlightened world. The story ignores frontiers of place and time, as it pictures the development of our common humanity, power and injustice, using evocative visual language. Tragically it is even more relevant today. 'Windows' is a work that describes a collective identity and calls out to be spoken and sung. "There is a wonderful huge, rich sweep of ideas in 'Windows' and a great sense of condensed history."
