Alright...looks like I got a poem accepted for this one...got this earlier today from Kiki...the poem I submitted was actually written three years back for this one...

Have a poem about the consequences of war or social injustice?

It wasn't accepted then, so I stuck it in my book which came out in 2012...and now it will be in a charity anthology to benefit veterans...cool stuff, me thinks...

Alright, we have an update from Kiki Howell about the charity anthology to raise money for veterans groups that I am involved in...including a blurb, cover and table of contents...

We Go On: Charity Anthology for Veterans

The poems and stories included in this anthology, written by various authors, tell of veterans outside of war, of how their sacrifice of service changed their lives long after the war was over. Although some of the messages of the sacrifices of war are sadly timeless, they speak of unsung heroes, and I say unsung because nothing we could ever do for them would ever be enough to say thank you for all they gave. With that said, with these poems and stories, we will give what we can. 100% of the profits made will go to charities for veterans.

To all who have served and to all of those who love them, we offer our undying gratitude because it is all we truly have to give you for your sacrifices, told and untold. So, we give what we can to honor you, to say thank you, and to, in some small way, give back. Although it could never be enough, a million thanks or a million dollars, we pray we can help some of the many who have given so much, so selflessly, and then suffered even as they fought another battle, the battle to go on…
