the Second World War." "We met
a day before the Six Day War." I would never say
"before the peace of '45-'48" or "in the middle of
the peace of '56-'67."

Yet the knowledge of peace
makes its way from one place to another
like children's games,
which are so much alike everywhere you go."/>

" Even my loves are measured by wars.
I say, "That happened after
the Second World War." "We met
a day before the Six Day War." I would never say
"before the peace of '45-'48" or "in the middle of
the peace of '56-'67."

Yet the knowledge of peace
makes its way from one place to another
like children's games,
which are so much alike everywhere you go. "
