There you go. You are telling me in the comments what I want to see and feel in the poem. You do not have to explain the situation to me. I am well aware of what anfal means and what was done and is being done to the kurds but both Iraq and Turkey. Maybe not on a personal level but on an intellectual level. I could care a less what you title your poem. But I do care about the content. Like I said yesterday it was when you started rattling of the names of the villages that it meant something to me. Until then I felt the poem drifted. If you want to discuss international relations I would be more than happy to but not in this forum. This is about poetry, and again if you can get what you are commenting about into the poem effectively, you fail to convince me of everything you are saying artistically.
