you looked away
ignoring the pain
sometimes
a flood
is more than a rush of tears
streets spatter
even at midnight
& the constant hum
of grotesque machinery
chews what's left inside
burrowing deep
at the core principles
some regard
as sacred

Thanks for the view from within, Ed.
I for one respond with efforts toward the good -- as in I Ching 43 Break-Through: The best way to fight evil is to make energetic progress in the good."
agree...yet difficult...thank you for the insight.
