IV. DEATH BY WATER


PHLEBAS the Phoenician, a fortnight dead,
Forgot the cry of gulls, and the deep seas swell
And the profit and loss.
A current under sea
Picked his bones in whispers. As he rose and fell
He passed the stages of his age and youth
Entering the whirlpool.
Gentile or Jew
O you who turn the wheel and look to windward,
Consider Phlebas, who was once handsome and tall as you.

2. "Thousands of Homes Crushed and Detroyed"

but that would detract from the Israelis suffering in bomb shelters and living to tell about it.

[Tom Yossarian Joad]

8. Yes...

And it's a terrible tragedy no matter where it happens. The innocents having their lives taken or destroyed for the posturing of politicians is heinous at best.
