LIKE THE FABLED PIED PIPER
A Prose Poem by Alice B. Clagett
27 September 2011

Like the fabled pied piper,
Microsoft and Apple
have taken away
our children
from their families.

It’s not just
the grief
of a little village.

The entire world mourns.

. . . . .

In love, light and joy
This is Alice B. Clagett.
I Am of the Stars … and so are you!
