“They saw their injured country's woe;
The flaming town, the wasted field;
Then rushed to meet the insulting foe;
They took the spear, - but left the shield.”
―Philip Freneau

And by a prudent flight and cunning save A life which valour could not, from the grave. A better buckler I can soon regain, But who can get another life again?

One can't help but wonder where they would be, and what they might sound like without that formidable array -- that strangling maze -- of brutal looking electronic equipment?
The poor children look as though they've been imprisoned behind an impenetrable barrier of manufactured stuff -- stuff that disconnects their voices from their humanity.
A living symbol and near-perfect model of what has overtaken the modern world graphically presented!
