What is it that they're seeking, so cold and so deprived? What is it that they dream of in their empty, eyeless heads? Why must we share their lust for war? Can they not die alone? Why must we share their fear of breath, light, life, PEACE? (Crass-1981)

WAR IS OVER IF… Even more pertinent today than when released in 1981 as a track on Crass' album 'Penis Envy'. 'What the Fuck', scripted by Penny Rimbaud and performed by Eve Libertine, is an uncompromising howl against the madness of war. Forty years on, penny rimbaud reflects

'I was born in 1943, the World was at war, Auschwitz was at its most active, Hiroshima and Nagasaki were yet come, but following these barbaric acts of destruction criminal acts of desolation we were told to rejoice, war was over.

It was the first of many great lies that have hounded my life. No, one war simply led to another.

Korea, Vietnam, Cambodia, on and on, right through to modern times; Afghanistan, Iraq, Ukraine, Palestine, and plenty more to come. This, we are assured by the ruling elites, is civilisation.

Throughout my life, I have actively opposed war and now, in my eighties, I might have expected something better than this, but no, it seems that the horrors are set as a default. Will love ever prevail against these obscenities?

John Lennon and Yoko Ono wrote ‘War is over if you want it.’ The writing is still on the wall. Look to it and move out into a love supreme. No one else can do it. Peace is ours if we want it. 'What The Fuck?' is now available for free download: crass.bandcamp.com/track/what-the…

True beauty blooms, bursts and then inverts. Therein it transmutes into eternal love, the very configuration of being. Consider the lilies...

This is the eternal moment illuminated by an everlasting love supreme. There are no shadows. There’s no escaping it, we are, after all, concurrent; big fire, big water, big sky, ethereal bliss.
