WHAT DO WE DO?


When we are sad the tears we form can be healing and satisfying…
What do we do when he have no tears left
but we haven’t finished crying?

Another person with a gun killing unsuspecting folks….
This latest one in California…at a bar in Thousand Oaks…

Each new shooting spree fails to bring us together
in fact it tears us more asunder… 
as again we cry for the victims
as again we’re left to wonder…

With each new murder of the masses
With each new innocent dying…
What do we do when we have no tears left
but we haven’t finished crying?

It saddens me to see the sorrow on each face
of those affected by this massacre
in this new time…
in this new place…

But knowing this is not the last time this will happen between our shores…
knowing this has become routine…
saddens me…
even more.

What do we do when faced with a reality
we have trouble justifying?
What do we do when we have no tears left

but we haven’t finished crying?
