My sister reminded us (7 siblings) of this poem written in response to WWI by William Butler Yeats, which we all were required to memorize in 8th grade. She can still recite it; I cannot.
My dad recited poetry to us, this was one among hundreds of his recitations. #WBY #Yeats #thesecondcoming #slouchingtowardsbethlehem Joan Didion used this line as a title to a book of her essays.
Yeats universal poem is relevant in today‘s world.
