Poem 47 of 230: A LOSS FOR HUMANITY
Summer's end, '97,
A car crash in France;
Then thousands of cut flowers -
Some bearers in trance.
For Diana broke-even -
Now resting in peace;
A loss for humanity -
Her caring did cease.
For, while taking her perks
(Perks there should not be),
She gave greatly of herself
In kind-charity -
Charity good states would free.
