Susan Hawthorne DP 341 poem for the disappeared




each time I write a poem
for the disappeared
young women
pregnant women
children
mothers and
grandmothers
of all these
I have to give up

so this is dedicated
to all known and unknown
those gone for good
and the few restituted
Carolina from Argentina 
was not found

  1. What an awful blight on Argentina's history. Ongoing to this day with the adoptions too.

    1. The search for Argentina's stolen generation is very drawn out. But they have found more than 100 children, who by now are adults.

  3. Not found, heartbreaking. I love the image of Carolina's face too.
