BED PEACE after 55 years
2024
Soil from two distant places, each placed in the shape of a person.
The meeting of soil and earth. The honeymoon of soil.
As I looked at them, I suddenly remembered the saying that people die and return to the soil. Maybe these two people of soil were really people.
I also realised that I had seen these two people somewhere sometime - John and Yoko at the Hilton Hotel, Amsterdam, 1969.
The year I was born was right in the middle of the Vietnam War, but 55 years later, fighting is still going on in many parts of the world.
