men and women break
the glass
of the towers we
have placed around us
they fall and fold
one layer of earth
one atop another as
our mother cries
because she is
overrun with deceit
the whole of
humanity takes and takes
the bloodshed of
person against person
no one knows the
honest truth anymore
no one feels the
pain of our losses more
than those who
listen to the news each night
suffering that
effigy of humankind
not truth, not
loyalty, no compassion
where do we go from
here: guns, road rage
set the world on
fire
because we cannot
bear our lives another day
where is our faith
then?
where is our hope,
our trust, reality?
