Newtown

Look at this latest madness
twenty tiny bodies
and the ripples of pain
spreading out and away from them
as high as mountains.

Look at this madness
and rage or shut down or despair
and write us off, all of us.

Look at this madness
without blinking, give no ground
oppose it with all that you are.

Burn brighter and longer
will it into existence
it's light we must become.

  1. madness, horrible madness
    and 5-10 year old innocent children who are not alive now to share their happiness for Christmas and New Year with their families,
    heartbreaking!
