In this contemplative episode of Tall Tales & Short Yarns, we delve into the poignant verses of "The War Goes On" by poet Jim Eves. With each measured line, Eves paints a harrowing landscape of conflict, a tableau where boundaries are drawn not just across lands, but through the very heart of humanity.
In a world where wars seem to emerge from the ashes of the old, Eves challenges us to consider the lines that divide us—lines that once etched, render us blind and deaf to those on the other side. The poet's voice becomes a mirror, reflecting the all-too-common estrangement and the tragic loss of comprehension among fellow beings.
As the poem unfolds, we are confronted with the stark reality of those ensnared by war's relentless grip. For them, the battlefields extend far beyond the physical, waging war within their spirits, leaving scars that time alone cannot heal. Eves's words echo the somber truth that for many, the war never truly ends—it simply lies in wait, a specter ready to ignite anew.
In a daring act of defiance, Eves suggests our only armor may be denial, a turning away from the spectacle of war, a refusal to acknowledge its existence. But is this ignorance truly bliss, or does it pave the way for the next cycle of despair?
Join us as we explore these profound questions and navigate the shadowy corridors of conflict and the human condition. This episode is not just a listening experience; it's a call to introspection, a summons to gaze beyond the lines we draw and to seek the threads that bind us all.
**Note:** This episode is a must-listen for anyone who's ever pondered the cyclical nature of conflict and the power of the human psyche to both create and deny the existence of the very wars that shape our world.
